We went to Lewis and Clark Heritage Days in St. Charles, MO, today. I certainly enjoyed the weaving! The tent with the loom was the first thing I saw when I came into the area. Chris said, "Uh, oh." :)
The children's area had several activities, including a "military" tent where they showed the kids how to throw hatchets and then taught them how to start a fire with flint and steel.
There were bag pipers and horses, and people in a wide array of garb, from kilts to Revolutionary War era costume.
Most of the costumes looked entirely too warm on our 90 degree F and high humidity day. We did our best to stay in the shade.
Happy Knitting,

I started this blog to post pictures of my knitting and my son, and I am gradually transitioning into more quilting than knitting. Weaving and spinning also make occasional appearances. Whatever your fiber crafting passion, enjoy!
