The Wayland Winter Farmers’ Market will have Farm Fiber Days on January 19 & February 16. We will be joined by talented local farmers, who produce yarn, top, roving and finished fiber products from their own animals. Additional vendors include dyers and a LYS bringing locally made artisan buttons. Another 35 food vendors will be on hand, so you will want to bring your appetite. Natsumi Asanuma from Knit for Boston, will be on hand to tell you about projects they are supporting, and collecting knitted items for charity. The vendor group will not be identical both weeks (see schedule below).
