A lot of us are seeing the fluffy, white snow outside, but we brought a little bit of that prettiness inside today! This absolutely beautiful 50% Angora/50% Romeldale yarn is the perfect representation of a beautiful, clean fleece that runs so smoothly for us! It is just the perfect snow white color and is making these cold days feel warm and cozy!

Every year at the PA Farm Show, we make sure to check out the fleece auction! These fleeces are absolutely beautiful and are a wonderful representation of the fiber industry! We are always happy to raise our bidder number because the proceeds from this auction go to the PA Farm Show Scholarship Foundation on behalf of the PA Sheep & Wool Growers Association! Both Madi and Ashley benefited from this scholarship foundation when they were in college and wonderful programs like this help keep the PA Farm Show and agriculture alive! These fleeces, along with the fiber from our own sheep and rabbits, are used to make the products you see in our farm store! Thank you to all who participate in the wool auction and help represent agriculture every chance you get
#fiber #wool #auction #funtimes #scholarships #agriculture #bidders #FarmShow #sheepandwool No snow days at Blue Mountain! The ride was a little more brisk to the mill this morning, but we're wide awake now and ready to create some beautiful things! Be safe and warm out there today! And if you're looking for something new for your next project, check out the fun yarns in our farm store! All PA grown fibers
We “felt” like sharing this beautiful mill project! #felt #fiberartist #pretty #wool #funtimes #fibermill
Piper, our ewe, kindly supplied this beautiful fleece from this fall. The Dauphin County youth team exhibited in the youth Fleece to Shawl contest at the PA Farm Show using Pipers wool and received the overall fleece award! We are so excited to have had the chance to supply these kids with a quality fleece again this year! Go Dauphin county!
The sheep to shawl is kicking off in 5 mins!!! Tune in to PCN to watch Madi, Tyler, Ben, and friends as they create a shawl in 2.5 hours straight from the sheep fleece! Wish them luck, along with all of the other teams competing!
Angorapalooza at the 2024 PA State Farm Show!! Always a fun time seeing beautiful bunny creations come to life! Matt and I were Jaq and Gus Gus on team Cinderella! Kids at heart as we were told when we strutted to the apple cider stand with our ears and whiskers as if we were roaming a Disney park! In the end, all teams finished and made length! I'm the happy new owner of the gorgeous scarf made by the team "Down the Rabbit Hole!" If you are there today, check out the sale arena today for the sheep to shawl contests starting this morning with the youth! What a night for the Bad News Squares! Madi and Ben started teaching all of us newbies how to square dance this fall, and somehow we managed to pull it together and not just look like a box of bouncing ping pong balls last night! Ole'! Enjoy a few highlight pictures from our week at the PA Farm Show so far! From the bunny show, to demonstrations, the apple pie contest, and so much more... tonight is square dancing... a first for us! Tune in to PCN or join live at 7pm tonight in the Large Arena! And so it begins... it is officially the start of the PA Farm Show as we kick off the day with the bunny show! Good luck to all the exhibitors!
