DFW Fiber Fest was a few weeks ago and it was a blast, as always! And I bought too much yarn, as usual!
My knitting friend and I went to the festival on the last day - Sunday. I was a bit worried that the vendors would run out of stock, but this was not the case! In fact, it was almost more pleasant to go on Sunday afternoon - the crowds thinned the longer we were there and, by 2:30, we felt like we were the only ones shopping!
I found some new yarns to love - Magpie, Long Dog, and Amanda Hope. I bought some yarn from one of my favorite Etsy sellers, Suburban Stitcher. And my absolute favorite, Must Stash, was there! I had to get two skeins from her!
My only disappoint was the lack of bulky yarn. I wanted some for a project but fingering weight yarn dominated the selection. Don't get me wrong, I love sock yarn....but you can't only make socks. Also, a local yarn vendor, Madelinetosh, was not there - for the first time ever. I was really sad to not see them.
Either way, I'm calling this year's festival a success! Fabulous yarn was found!
