In spite of the dire warnings about Hurricane Earl, the weather’s turned out to be lovely this weekend. The hurricane changed course and left us with clear, cool, breezy days that feel like fall.
The term “holiday” is used loosely here. We don’t have holidays from taking care of our animals. Long weekends and nice weather usually mean more tourists and farm visitors. It keeps us busy!
Our first fiber festival of the season, Southern Adirondack Fiber Festival, is coming up soon, so one of my projects this week is to wash, skein and dye yarn. I’ll start with sock yarn. And I still have a lot of fiber to skirt and send to the mill. It’s not easy to find the time to get everything done!
