The next weekend, October 10, 11, and 12 we will be at Spinner Farm in Deering, NH for the annual Wool Arts Tour. I will miss everyone at Mirage Alpacas where we have been for years, but this is actually quicker from home and it is a HUGE riding arena. The building is wide open with huge windows and very large lights. I am joined by Judy Helie of Bit O' Heaven Farm, Jen & Chris Connolly from Fiber Dreams Farm,and Ken & Charlene Schultz from HoneyBuns, who were all with me at Mirage. Please come find us!!
