Woolfest 2016

This is my fourth visit to woolfest and it's as vibrant and colourful as ever .  I thought this year I'd try and focus on the sheep.  They of course being the star attraction. There are the real sheep, see these beautiful herdwicks- my favourites. And then there are the knitted sheep. The printed sheep The sheep puppets. And me trying my hand at being a sheep puppeteer. I loved these puppets , which were from the production of a 'Shepherd 's Life', at the theatre by the lake in Keswick.  Very interestingly the sheep puppets had no legs ! On a slightly smaller scale needled felted sheep.  A crocheted colourful sheep. And finally to finish, a dark wendesleydale sheep, relaxing and showing off her curls. As you can tell I had a great time as usual and will sure to be returning next year.
