The gentlemen farmers from Underhill Farm will be joining us again this year. They had this to tell us:
"We are a farm in Central Pennsylvania that raises a rare breed of sheep, Leicester Longwools, and Angora goats. All yarns sold at our booth are from what we say, Our Farm-Our Flock- Our Yarn. Some of the yarn is hand-dyed or sold naturally."

Yes, we will have a yarn winding station at the festival again this year!

For $1.00 per 100 gram skein, you can have the yarn you purchase at the festival wound into cakes that are ready to use. All proceeds from yarn winding will be donated to the Wounded Warrior Fund again this year.

*Please note - only purchases made at the festival will be wound. Thank you for understanding.

SharLyn String Weaving says:
"I hand dye yarn and weave items including ponchos, scarves, table runners hand towels, coasters, hot mats. I enjoy dyeing unique small batch skeins of yarn using wool and nylon blend yarn plus some specialty yarns. I love dyeing custom skeins of assigned looking yarn for clients. My hand woven towels are great for everyday use in the kitchen or as hand towels in the bathroom even though most people just use them for decoration because they say they are too pretty to use. My hand woven items are customizable and I am happy to weave items in colors that will work well with your decor."

Lippencott Alpacas has been in business for 20 years & have a Farm Store with yarns: PA yarn, Peruvian yarn (DK & sock) and our own yarn from our animals (100% Baby-Grade 1 & yarn blended with silk). We will offer some socks, gloves (C0-OP) and stuffed animals with alpaca fleece. Alpaca fiber is known for its amazing softness and high wicking action to keep your body warm and dry. It doesn't hold odor. Most people feel more comfortable wearing alpaca rather than sheep wool. Alpaca has 22 natural colors and can also be dyed into many beautiful colors. Alpaca can be blended with merino, silk, bamboo, tencel, yak and more. I have my own white Grade 1 (Baby-means softest) alpaca yarns. I also have a limited amount of my own white Baby alpaca yarn blended with silk. People who dye yarns will have fun dying my white yarns! Once you work with alpaca, it is hard to use sheep yarn again. Touching is Believing!
