Sheep to Scarf

My sheep to shawl team signed up to do a demo for our local handweaver’s guild this weekend.  We decided to do a "Sheep to Scarf" trial run.  A scarf so that we didn’t have to spin or weave as frantically, but it’s big enough we’ll get a good idea of how the contest will go for us.

It was a not so great day for being outside and spinning/weaving. Luckly we had a tent - albiet a small one.  There 7 of us crammed into a tiny 10×10 space, and it was cooooold!  You can see Debbie on the left weaving (and talking on the phone to Mr. Debbie), then Judy, Di, a person who came by and Ingrid was showing how to use the spinning wheel, Ingrid, Rebecca, my empty chair (that’s my new Lendrum in the front), & Sue.

I totally forgot to snap any shots of the scarf as it was being woven! Hopefully Debbie has a shot of it on her blog, Divergent Threads.
