Six Paca Farm & Fitch Fiber Fiber Arts Fair - Bozrah, CT - 6/13/2015 Where do I even begin here... You really need to be into knitting to be into this road trip which quite frankly im not... However..., having a wife that truly loves knitting, there are things and place we men go sometimes thats not specifically for our benefit so much as its part of being a couple and spending time together... We started out at the different booths viewing many beautiful yarns of varying styles, textures and colors... There was even a "Betsy Ross" looking woman spinning some yarn... Next we watched the shearing of an Angora Rabbit. I never knew that Angora actually came from Rabbit. I always thought it was just cats. Ever so carefully with a sharp pair of scissors this woman gently trimmed all of the rabbits hair down to the skin level. A process that she has perfected and timed to approximately forty five minutes. All kidding aside this part was actually interesting... As if my senses werent already over-dosing on what I have seen so far..., next a tour of the plant where they process the yarn. Lots of people and lots of machines creating wonderful yarns that one day would be transformed into one of a kind sweaters, wraps, scarves and what have you... Then onto the Alpaca herd where we saw, did Geico "Hunp Daaaay" sounds to and fed chunks of carrots... In the barn was a mamma Alpaca with her baby born a week ago... Soooo cute! And at the end of it all, like most tours is the gift store where they have on display quite an assortment of yarn related items for sale. If youre a guy and your wife is into knitting, suck it up and take her here. If youre a person actually into knitting - Come here. My wife and her girlfriend were absolutely giddy like two fourteen year olds experiencing all things knitting that this venue offered and had a really great time! For me, there was the added bonus of the food for sale at the venue... The Beef Chili was to die for as was the Oatmeal-Raisin Cookie...

Wish they posted that they had summer hours because we drove 1-1/2 hours today to learn they are only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday through August! Very Frustrating!
