2010 Fiber Festivals & Events We are making plans for participating in the following festivals, fairs & events in 2009. All of these are gatherings of fiber animal raisers or fiber enthusiasts – spinners, weavers, rug hookers, knitters, & artists. There are vendors selling items from stock handling equipment to fine lace shawls and demonstrations from herding dogs to rug hooking. The shows include a variety of fiber bearing animals - sheep, alpaca, angora goats, cashmere goats, llama, angora rabbits, and occasionally even a yak and all of their fibers are available to touch and buy.
