First Wyoming Wool and Sheep Festival in Kemmerer

 The Wild West Rug Hookers attended the very first Wyoming Wool and Sheep Festival, which was in Kemmerer WY and we had a BLAST! 

I was setting up my frame but I was so busy I never had a chance to hook. The Debra Inglis, Patty Tyrrell, and Catherine Buttrick demonstrated all day!

Here I am selling some of my hand dyed fiber and yarn. 

These adorable little girls and one more sister watch Debra hook for a long time. At one point they were all four on the ground watching how the hook grabs the wool. On of the girls was on Debra's shoulder watching long after the others left.

Catherine Butterick, our new ATHA Region 10 Rep and her husband John came from Idaho and demonstrated all day. She went home with a fleece.

This was before the day got started. It was such a great day and Kemmerer was a fun town for the Festival. It is tentatively planned for Thermopolis next year and hopefully we will be teaching a class. The trip was beautiful and the people were all wonderful!!!

 

Wild West Hook-In

 I can't believe I haven't posted on here in so long. I really dropped the ball!!

We are having another Hook-In this year and they are really growing. We will have 2 wool vendors this year and another vendor with other goodies as well as the yard sale table. It is from May 17-19, 2023 in Cody Wyoming. You are responsible for getting your own room. Debra Inglis can help you with that with a few places. So many bring their 5th wheels and motor homes or stay in Air B&B's.

Make checks out to Debra Inglis for a reserved seat. We provide a lot of snacks. There is so much to see and do in Cody, We have one of the most amazing Western Museums and we are only an hour away from Yellowstone National Park. The husbands enjoy it as much as the hookers do!

I hope you can make it!
