In the "Wool" Division at the County Fair, there is a section for handwoven or knitted / crocheted, etc. with handspun yarn items that were inspired by the County. The exhibitor may look at native plants, scenic features, like the local river or other geological features. In the past, native plant dyes were used to color yarn used in a woven piece.

This has been a fun challenge to inspire us to create interesting items that showcase our County's beauty.
