The Full Story

Join us for a day of music, food, your favorite knitting and crocheting friends, plus a wonderfully curated show of incredible makers!  Last year we dipped our toe into this event at the beautiful Rose Hill Farm with a party on Saturday evening.  It was community centered, relaxed, and just so much fun.


This year, we have moved our event to Friday so we can have a market during the day and then the same sweet party in the evening.  We will have delicious food vendors, amazing music makers, a gorgeous Hudson Valley orchard to relax in and all the wooly and wool friendly goods and yarns you could ever want from all your favorites.  Joining us for the affair are: La Bien Aimée, mYak Fibers, The Wandering Flock, Chicken Lotto, Yarn & Whiskey, Sonder Yarn Co., Brooklyn General Store, Little Fox Yarn and The Farmers Daughter Fibers!  We will have a full lineup of musical artists joining us (including our own Little Fox duo, The Flying Sulsers!) with musical production by our friends at Jalopy Theatre and School of Music. Music will begin at noon.   AND...Shelli Martinez of ShelliCan will be joining us as the Mistress of FUN to keep us all laughing throughout the day :)  We'll have the same great food trucks as last year (Misto and Oyster Party) with the addition of Fat Apple Farm and few more sweet options to round out the menu. We will also have a morning food truck for you early bird shoppers.

Entry into the marketplace will be timed so we do not overwhelm the farm. There will be 3 timed slots from 10-11:45, 12:45-2:30 and 3:30-5:15.  The marketplace will then close and the evening party will begin at 6 pm.  Tickets will be $25 for each 1.75 hour timed slot and $45 for the party. If you want to stay for 2 slots, you need to purchase 2 slots.

Parking is limited so we are hoping that everyone will come with their car FULL!  If you are the one driving for your party of 4 (yes, I would like to have each car full), you must purchase a parking ticket in addition to your timed slot ticket for a timed parking spot.  If you go to buy your tickets and the parking spots are sold out...don't worry!  We will be creating a discord chat group so people can connect for ride-sharing and connecting prior to the event.  If you have accessibility needs please let us know by reaching out to us by email at hello@woolenaffair.com.  A Woolen Affair seeks to ensure an accessible, inclusive, and welcoming space, and asks that all attendees treat each other with dignity & respect. 

We are looking forward to gathering with you all and having a fun, safe, wool and music filled day! The theme for this year is Campfire.  Think shoulder to shoulder, smokey flannels, sticky marshmallows, hot cocoa, off-beat harmonies and lots of knitting and crochet. :)  Above all, we want this event to make you feel good, leaving you smiling all the way home with a full belly and a full heart.  We want it to be the perfect start to a beautiful weekend at the beloved NY State Sheep & Wool Festival.

WE  CAN'T  WAIT  TO  SEE  YOU!
