Fiber festivals, art shows, concerts among entertainment this weekend

A variety of entertainment will be offered on the North Olympic Peninsula this weekend.

• Fiber Festival: From Sheep to Shawl will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at Worthington Park, 151 W. Columbia St., in Quilcene.

“The Quilcene Historical Museum and Fiber and Clay will host the festival that uses all of the park — the newly restored Victorian mansion, museum, outdoor theatre, historic barn and 10 acres.

Among the activities planned on the grounds are sheep shearing, alpacas on leads in the meadow, a wool waulking performance and demonstration of an old Gaelic tradition of fulling woven cloth; in the museum visitors can weave a community rug on a large loom and learn about wet felting, knitting, crocheting and weaving; in the mansion will be raffles, traditional music and large walking spinning 1860 wheel and locker hooking demonstrations, as well weaving, knitting and crocheting.

Farm and shop vendors will be on hand, selling, among other items, hand knit, crochet, woven, and felted goods as well as hand dyed and hand spun yarn, wooden tools and yarn bowls.
