Adams Farm

We took a trip up to Adams Farm on Saturday and had a great time.

It was a busy day at the farm the day before. Check out the day old angora goat and day old piglets we got to see.

Lots and lots of animals. While the kids were milking a goat, I snuck away to the upstairs of their store to touch wool and browse.

And then I came upon a Weavette. A few weeks ago at the WEBS knitting drop-in, a woman had brought along her 2×2 hand loom along with the baby blanket she was working on. I really liked the look of the blanket; like a bunch of postage stamps sewn together. I had to bring it home with me.

Then tonight I grabbed my scrap yarn and played a little. One rectangle became four before I knew it. Now I want other Weavettes. Hmm, maybe a little log cabin action? I’m going to teach Ella tomorrow. She’s excited too.

  4. David’s taught a class on making an amulet bag by needle felting Weavette squares, so we have a few of them. I haven’t played with mine for a bit.

  6. I would probably find myself addicted to that thing if I had one – too cute! I bet you’ll have a wondeful time with Ella, I love crafting with my girls.
