Don’t Miss the Rhinebeck 2025 Book Signing & Meet-Up!
What do you get when you mix sheep, yarn, and a big group of knitters in their finest sweaters? Rhinebeck! The New York Sheep & Wool Festival is always one of my favorite times of the year, and this year promises to be filled with creativity, community, and maybe a few new skeins for the stash.
Mark your calendars for October 18–19, 2025, and join us for some exciting highlights—including a book signing, a group meet-up, and a raffle full of goodies—that will make your Rhinebeck weekend even better!
