Applefest!

This Saturday is Downtown Bowmanville's annual Applefest. The merchants of Downtown Bowmanville have been hosting this event for many years. It draws vendors and visitors from across the province. The main street is closed to vehicle traffic and tents filled with arts and artisans take over the street.

This is the first year that I will be participating as a shop owner. I have been a vendor at this event and as a member of the staff at the shop 'Gather' up the street. When the weather is nice its a great way to see some wonderful artists and local people doing what they do best. Today's weather forecast says that it will be a chilly but sunny day.

It's time to get out those hats, scarves and mitts. Or better yet come and visit and make some new ones! A new yarn has just arrived! A hint..its the weirdest stuff I have ever 'knitted'!

More about that later,

see you soon

Too bad applefest is this weekend. I hope to be in town next weekend. Will definitely stop by, I'm nearly out of sock wool :)
