For the thirty-sixth time, thousands upon thousands of fiber hungry souls will converge on the Howard County Fairgrounds in West Friendship, Maryland for two days of fiber inundation. Although we won’t be there in person, we’ll be there in spirit – and in fiber, spindles, and knitting needles!
This morning Miriam Carter picked up all these babies (and many, many more) and will have them in her booth:
You can find her at Miriam Carter/Feltmaker (listed under M) in the Main Building, B20. The batts will be somewhat subdued, however, by Miriam’s glorious feltwear:
Cloveryhill Yarn, in the Main Building, Booths D2 and D3, will also have a selection of fibers on hand.
A fleet of FiberShips™ will be flying south today and landing in Carolina Homespun’s booth, Main Building, C24:
where they will nestle against the Darn Pretty™ Needles that will accompany them on their trip.






Hi Linda,
I petted your lovely batts at Maryland S&W, I resisted the temptation to purchase more. must. not. buy. more. fiber. It was tough!! They reminded me that I had not checked your website/blog in awhile. I see your farm is listed for sale, where are you going? Will you still be doing fiber and will Tom still be turning fabulous tools for us?

We won’t go far – we’ll still be carding and turning. We don’t know where or when we’ll move – only that we have to if we are to get our children an education. So it goes.
Oops. I’ll post my comment as soon as I finish wiping the drool off the keyboard.
