This episode is the second part of our field trip at the 2006 NYS Sheep and Wool Festival in Rhinebeck, NY.
In this episode, we went to a sheep auction and met with:

- Tanya who raises Alpaca in Upstate New York
What am I wearing?:
- See episode 5 – “bs” asked for the pattern so I offer it out to all of you. You can find it in the comments for Episode 5.
We apologize for the delay in getting this episode out to you all. Immediately after posting Episode 5, we packed up and traveled down to Baltimore for Stitches East (a future episode) and this trip took away from working on getting Episode 6 edited and posted.
