And I will add these words:
Even if you are not part of the 'textile community', nor are interested
in Wool/Spinning/Weaving/etc.
It's a great festival to attend. My Lady/I/Son attend each year,
because of the Vendors, the Displays, and all the SCAdians we run into.
(I found 1/4" thick Linen rope there one year that I use for Crossbow
Bindings!)

PS. And the Lamb-Gyros & Lamb-Sausage are amazing...

Renaissance

Maryland Sheep and
| Wool Festival which is held at the Howard County Fairgrounds just off
I-70.
|
| You will be able to watch weaving, including on a warp-weighted loom,
| spinning, embroidery, tablet weaving, sprang, nalbinding, fingerloop
braiding,
| knitting, and bobbin lace. You will even be able to try your hand at
most of
| these techniques! And there will be books, kits, and other items for
sale.
|
| Hours for the festival, which is a huge and fabulous affair which has
| everything your heart could ever desire when it comes to wool,
threads, sheep, and
| "thread things" in general, are 9-6 on Saturday and 9-5 on Sunday. Both
| parking and entry are free.
|
| See you there!
