Well Thanksgiving is over. The Norwood Fair was a busy pl;ace in spite of the cold. Our 15 minutes of fame on CHEX TV went well.
We now have our product at Craftworks in Peterborough(www.peterboroughcraftworks.com/). The booth looks good and the building has been really well renovated.
I've found a quick and easy method for knitting scarves. You use flat I-cord(knit one,purl two, knit one),when the cord is as long as you want your scarf to be,take a med. size crochet hook and crochet two rows of double crochet around the I-cord. At the corners crochet a double crochet,one single crochet and then another double crochet into each corner to square them off.
I've also been busy taking some of the neutral Alpaca yarn and Mohair and dyeing them with food colouring to create some accent yarns for the scarves and mitts.

We discovered your farm while you were at the Fair. Your husband was kind enough to show us around. I loved it! I bought a beautiful handspun skein of alpaca and I would like some more. I was wondering if you have some at the Craftswork building. I am looking for the yarn that has many shades of brown in it. It also as black and white. I even know which of your Alpacas produces it (it is of a beautiful color!).
