Taos Wool Festival

I attended the Taos Wool Festival this past weekend and had tons of fun. I bought some incredible fleeces that I hope to weave into fleece rugs. I took a class on making art batts and really enjoyed it.

Taos food was fantastic and I was thrilled to discover how vegan/ vegetarian Taos is. Yeah! It is also a very dog friendly town, many stores will allow you to bring your dog inside. The restaurant patios were also dog friendly too.

This is one of the beautiful fleeces in the fleece show

 

A very cool Saori Weaving loom, that we got to see.
