We have something spooky in store for you this week!🧙🏻♀️ Peggy’s back from Scotland, and we’re enjoying the cooler weather and watching the leaves change here in Vermont. Join us for a peek behind-the-scenes as Junction Fiber Mill prepares for the upcoming fiber festivals!
The weather’s getting cooler, but we thought we’d brighten things up with Hunting Season Orange and Pink. Both of these fluorescent fibers are sure to get you seen from afar, whether you’re out in the woods, or at the fiber festivals!
