An interactive celebration of all things fiber at The Art of Shearing- A Sheep to Shawl Festival!
While our resident sheep are being shorn, Hill-Stead will welcome fiber artists, and vendors, demonstrating Skirting, Carding, Spinning, Weaving, Knitting, Crocheting, Felting and more. Learn what it takes to create something “from sheep to shawl”.
There will be free hayrides to and from the barns, food vendors, Relic Brewing, story teller Liz Gruber spinning tales about fiber, as well as opportunities to participate in yarn demonstrations and special guest Peggy Hart, author of – Wool- An American story of artisans and innovation.
