The first week is Yarn Week, next week will be sewing ..

My friend from Knit & Knatter was there with her spinning wheel, spinning wool from alpacas which her friend brought along -my fav one was this "punk" one with sticky up fur

John Groom were there with their Noah's Ark ... loved all the animals, and any spare were being sold off to raise mroe money - I got myself a little owl

They also had exhibits from Norfolk Knitters and Stitchers ... weaving on big looms and little ones, spinning wool by hand -that takes some co-ordination .. I tried it ! Some lovely things made from felt ...
