Sheep to Shawl 2023

​Wow wow wow... what at day at the PA Farm Shows Sheep to Shawl contest yesterday! Madi, Ben, and friends had a team called Twisted Sisters (and a dude) and their theme was ice cream! Yummy!! They all worked so well together! Tyler sheared for them and our young ewe, Piper, donated her bea-ewe-tiful fiber for the contest! Tyler was booking and was 2nd to finish shearing so the kids could start cracking away at their shawl! They worked for 2 hours and managed to cut their shawl off the loom with a little time to spare! While they might not have been awarded the Blue Ribbon, it was most certainly a blue ribbon worthy experience for the team! Just seeing the crowd gathered in the stands again compared to the past two years due to covid was heartwarming to see again!
Congrats to our buddies on the Friends Thru Fiber team on their stunning sunflower shawl and 1st place!!
Huge thanks to the buyers who come out and support ALL of these hard working teams! It takes a lot to keep these traditions going and the proceeds from these shawls help teams to come back year after year!
I realized later that we were so into the contest that we forgot to snap pictures while they were working, so here are a few after the competition and at the shawl auction.
