Sheep to Shawl - virtual contest entry 2021 - transforming local fibre into fun!

Have I forgotten you?  Feel lonely?  Isolated?  Lost? 
Yep, that was most of 2020 for me and many of my fibre friends.  

When 2021 arrived, we thought "there must be something we can do to safely get together and help rebuild our fibre community."  And so, the Virtual Sheep to Shawl was born.

The goal is to have fun, play with yarn and local fibre, support local farmers, and most of all, help rebuild a sense of connection while creating resources to inspire future fibre folk.  That's a big goal, but a successful one I think.  

Our visual component was a video.  Actually, I made two because I'm silly that way.  A bit of an experiment to see which works best for my youtube audience.



And here is our official submission with talking and more detailed descriptions of what we are making.


They were both a lot of fun to make.  Almost as much fun as playing with my fibre friends.

If you enjoy what you see, please pop over to youtube and give a thumbs up or leave a comment or both.  This helps fuel me on my journey to becoming a video creator.
