I finally made it out to the Finger Lakes Fiber Festival this year. It poured rain almost all day on Saturday, but everyone made the best of it and still had a great day. This is a very nice festival and I'm already looking forward to next year!
Just for kicks I decided to enter the Marcel sweater and Sunshine's hat in the knitting competition.
Marcel's sweater received a blue ribbon for Knitted Sweater of Handspun Yarn and the Excellence in Knitting award.
And Sunshine's hat a blue ribbon for Knitted Hat and the Best Use of Handspun in a Knitted Item award.
I was blown away and so incredibly flattered.

Congratulations! Well deserved! Such beautiful work -- imaginatively designed, and meticulously executed.

I loved seeing both of your pieces in the display. But particularly the hat. Fabulous work! Congratulations!
Congratulations! Your sweater is gorgeous. I made the Market Day sweater after seeing yours in a previous blog. I used Knit Picks Wool of the Andes in Amber Heather. I also lengthened the sleeves; I added a bit of length to the bottom and a couple of inches to the collar, as well. I purchased spalted oak buttons from Etsy that I love! Have been curious to see your choice of buttons; beautiful! I'm sitting here just drooling over the hat!!
Congratulations! Well done!
Well done! And remember - you didn't "win" anything - you earned it! Winning is for random chance. You built those items with extreme care. Great to see it recognized.
Of course you won with your sweater and hat. Silly girl! And Marcel and Sunshine live on and on and on. And are so beautiful. Love each and every one of you at Equinox Farm!
Wow!! Congratulations!!
Love, ineke
