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.
