Another Fiber program: Knitting group from Russell, KS

 Some members of the Thursday Knitting Club from Russell, KS who came for a fiber program to learn about Knooking!

While the group decided they still preferred the traditional method of knitting over the Knook (knitting with a crochet hook) they still enjoyed the rest of their time at the Farm – especially with the alpacas!  Here Goldylocks is trying to get into one of the ladies’ pockets!

Is Goldylocks whispering in Diane’s ear, or is she trying to get the earrings?

The two youngest alpacas, both born in 2011:   Sr. Terry reaching out to Harry Potter, and Diane petting Hermione.

The  ladies of the Thursday Knitting Club with Sr. Terry in the Silo.

Everyone enjoyed the day!

Another of the fiber works at Heartland Farm is Sr. Mary Ellen spinning alpaca fleece.  The Russell group found watching her fascinating.
