Some of you may remember my first ever Wool festival, “Lot et Laine”, here in France 2 years ago. It was in south west of France, in the departement du Lot (46).

This year, the second edition of the same festival will take place in the same place, Cuzals – Sauliac sur Cà©là© (46), on the week-end of July 14th (that’s Bastille day !)
I’ll be there along with dozens of other artisans, sheep breeders and any wool-related industry you can think of.

I’ll bring paper copies of my most popular patterns (mostly in french too) along with samples to touch and have a closer look at.

I’ll also bring my collection of vintage french spindles, and postcards showing french spinners in action. (I’d love to bring a first draft of my ebook-in-progress, but we’ll see)

You’ll also find felted soaps and kits on my stand.

AND. I will offer 2 different workshops during the festival:

– making felted soaps (1 hour, for adults & kids from 8+ – 10.5 Euros/person, all materials included)
– introduction to spindle spinning, and make your own spindle (2 hours, for adults and kids from 10+ – 22 euros/person)

Find more info on the “Lot et Laine” wool festival on the french blog or on Facebook.

Are you coming as well ? I hope to see you there :-D
