Shenandoah Valley Fiber Festival

Today, I went with friends to the Shenandoah Valley Fiber Festival outside of Berryville, Virginia. I’m not much of a fiber person. I don’t knit or spin or weave and I can only just crochet and don’t enjoy it very much, but I do like a day out with friends, and I like all the animals. They had border collies demonstrating their considerable skills with sheep, which is always fun to watch. There were also various types of sheep and goats along with a smattering of llamas, alpaca, and one camel, who was very funny. There was also an emu and some angora rabbits, but my favorite animal was the little guy below. He was for sale and I thought he would have made a nice addition to my sister’s menagerie, but sadly (or perhaps luckily for her) he had already been purchased.
