​Sheep to Shawl is a competition in which teams race against the clock to transform wool into a beautiful, wearable shawl. In 2018 and 2019, Lambtown Festival hosted the largest S2S competitions in the country. In 2020, we held the first ever virtual competition - and it was even larger than either of the previous two years! 

 

As in 2022, this year we will have two divisions, Virtual and Fairgrounds, and the winners will go head-to-head for a Grand Champion Blue Ribbon! All judging will be done by Kaye and Sand Luck. Individuals may not compete on more than one team in each division.

​

Judges' bio: Kaye and Sand Luck have a long history with making cloth, more than 30 years of weaving, spinning, and other fiber arts. They owned a yarn shop and taught weaving and spinning for 10 years. Their most recent venture was a studio art business. Now they are looking forward to new possibilities in the world of textile arts. They are delighted to bring their knowledge of weaving, education, spinning, and sheep to Lambtown Festival.
