Coventry Farmer's Market Fiber Twist and February Cowl

1. Coventry Farmers Market Fiber Twist

This year is the third Gergler Family Trip out to the Coventry Farmers Market for the Fiber Twist weekend for as much woolly goodness as we can stand. We can now officially call Fiber Twist weekend an annual pilgrimage. Huzzah!

As per usual, I spent a huge chunk of money on some fantastic local roving and yarn. This year's theme was alapaca, as I somehow only managed to buy alpaca fiber.

Everything is so soft. I just want to roll around in it.


2. February Cowl

I also finished this little gem using the yarn I bought at the New York Renaissance Faire.

Nice! Are you using a drop spindle or will you be using a spinning wheel? Or are you needle felting with it?

@Fayme I currently use a drop spindle, but my sister's moving out at the end of the month and that's freeing up a room in the house, so I'm starting to look into getting a wheel.

Awesome! Craig's list has them from time to time.
