Kid & Ewe
I’m going to Kid & Ewe & Lamas Too this weekend. I’m guessing that it’s “Lamas” meaning “Members of Genus Lama” so that includes all the South American camelids – rather than Lamas of the Tibetan variety.
I’m going to be doing two workshops (or one long workshop in two parts, depending on how you want to look at it) on tablet weaving – the first covers how to warp and do basic patterns like stripes, checks, and solids, and the second covers three decorative techniques: double-face, Egyptian Diagonals, and Brocade.
Who else is gonna be there? I know some of y’all go – definitely stop and say howdy if you do!
Ya never know, maybe it is a Buddhist blessing of the flocks!
LOL. I would enjoy that! I wonder if they bless silkworms?
blessings and worms
i bet they fucking do.
i want to see you surrounded by alpacas or whatever they are.
Re: blessings and worms
I love when the ladies sit with the angora bunnies in their laps, spinning from the fur right off the bunny.
Did you know that alpacas hum?
Re: blessings and worms
come on. really?
they knit the fur right off the bun?
awesome!
i love alpacas, have not heard them singing (each to each) and i love you.
i think they should move vancouver to texas or other way around.
Re: blessings and worms
Yup, right from the bunny to the spinning wheel:

Alpacas are so sweet. Shy, but sweet.
Perhaps Lorenzo will be there.
Yum. Maybe they’ll shear him. 🙂
Texas
Wow! You guys seem to have a bit going on down there for fiber stuff
I won’t be there, heeee, but my friend Glenna is doing a workshop and I supplied her fibers. 😉 Glenna is awesome, and a charkha and spindle evangelist.
Yeah, Glenna’s a sweetheart – she’s one of my festival buds. She and I hang out at Folk Life Festival a lot. I’ll have to check out your stuff!
