Can you feel it? It's in the air. The sweet smells of spring are upon us, the leaves are returning to the trees, the flowers are blooming and the weather is getting warmer. That all points to only one thing.... MD Sheep and Wool is coming! In fact it's only 27 days away!
I'm especially excited this year because I'm helping out at the Cloverhill Yarn Shop booth! Come by and say hey! I'll be the one fondling all the luscious yarn and fiber... well - that may not help distingiush me too much... hehe!
Here's a photo to help you out...
My pal Sarah and I started a new blog to help countdown to the day. Go check it out here:

must have - ORANGE SOCK YARN!!!! It will be the main thing I will be looking for....Along with yarn for mittens and other little things, and maybe roving so my sister can spin some nice yarn!
I foresee being a big Cloverhill groupie this year. :D
You have quite the awesome line up there! I can't wait!
Maybe I will actually make it to the MD Sheep and Wool festival this year! I kind of think my little guy would enjoy seeing the sheep! Happy Anniversary to you too!!
Aaah pure torture! I will be experiencing the festival vicariously through you.
hey Jody, I remember seeing you at the yarn party! Mostly because I couldn't stop staring at your sweater. So pretty.
