The Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: Fourth Weekend

Welcome back to your regularly scheduled block of Renaissance Festival Madness™. I need to talk about my spinning this week. You may recall a breed study I wanted to partake in over the summer, and then life got the better of me. Well, no time like the present. I grabbed the Shetland and went out […]

The Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: First Weekend

We’re back! Even as we still face down a pandemic, I have to say it was so nice to be out there again. Maybe that’s because, as many as you know, this will be Wolf ‘n’ Sheep’s Clothing last season at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival. Many people have told me I could find another […]

Throwback (Centuries) Thursday

Labor Day Weekend is almost upon us, which means it’s almost time for the Kansas City Renaissance Festival! This will be my fifth season out at Wolf ‘n’ Sheep’s clothing. I remember by first like it was yesterday… And I remember all of the other seasons too! All of the fibery fun, the hot, the […]

Corset Coffee Cozy

Holiday knitting is now in full swing! First on my list is an appropriately themed coffee cup cozy for my Ren Fest friend, Chrissy. I designed this corset a couple of seasons ago, so I’m super bummed that I missed making her one then, but now I have something for her for Christmas! And really, […]

Adventures at the Ren Fest: The Last Weekend

So now it’s officially over! It would’ve been nice to really enjoy my last day out at the Faire this year. Instead we had rain and wind in the high 30s. It’s the coldest day I’ve ever spent out there, I’m sure (Marci said she’s had colder). Quite a few people braved that weather with […]

Adventures at the Ren Fest: 6th Weekend

The end of the Kansas City Renaissance Festival is nigh, and traditionally the last couple of weekends are really good at Wolf ‘n’ Sheep’s Clothing. It’s chillier, people forget warm things, and we get to bust out our own hand-knits. It was a little harder this weekend with all the rain, but I managed: And […]

Adventures at the Ren Fest: 4th Weekend

Well, the weather was perfect, and we finally had some good crowds out at the Renaissance Festival. However, with larger crowds comes crazier guests, it seems. I can’t even phrase them all into “I” sentences. Here’s all the crazy that I got to experience last weekend: A guy walked into the booth, stood about a […]

Adventures at the Ren Fest: 3rd Weekend

It was so hot this weekend (which is never fun when you’re in the market of warm things), but it wasn’t a total bust. Mom was working out at the Faire this weekend too! She’s working for one of her favorite artists, Clay Images, who make these amazing ceramic dragon pieces, including three different styles […]

Adventures at the Ren Fest: 1st and 2nd Weekends

The unofficial start of fall also rings in the start of the Renaissance Festival in Kansas City, and I’m in my fourth season working at Wolf ‘n’ Sheeps Clothing. I fully intended to do one of these posts last week but the holiday weekend threw me off my rhythm. So this one is a twofer. […]
