About Us
Ewes-ful Fiber Arts is a small farm and fiber arts business, located in Westminster, MD. Susan Withnell has been creating hand spun yarns and hand woven items for almost 20 years, often using fiber from her own animals. She raises high percentage rare breed Wensleydale sheep. Wensleydale wool is a british wool that is known as the finest luster long wool in the world. A limited amount of her farm raised Wensleydale wool roving is available for $30/pound. Susan uses this soft, long stapled fiber to spin and hand dye some of her yarns. Knitting with Wensleydale yarn produces a soft garment that will “bloom” as it is warn. The natural sheen to wensleydale yarn is unlike that of most other wool yarns. Susan’s Angora rabbits and alpaca also provide fibers for the handspun yarns. Offered for sale are handspun alpaca, angora, mohair, and camel down/silk blend yarns. The natural colored camel down/silk blend is exquisitely soft and the silk gives the yarn a natural shine. It takes dye beautifully! Hand woven items include scarves, shawls and the very popular mobius. A mobius is a cross between a shawl and an infinity scarf, being one continuous loop, but wide enough to go over your shoulders like a shawl. Mobius can actually be worn doubled as well, emulating a cowl. The Ewes-ful Fiber Arts Mobius have been selling out each year as now designs in chenille, merino/tencel, and wool are created. Also, check out the larger V-shawl, which is created by weaving two long panels together. A weaving demonstration video on our web page shows how this is done! Our web page has links to very detailed and informative weaving and spinning demonstrations, as well as a brief fun video showing my young working border collie Bryn as she moves my sheep. Check them out! Browse the etsy shop, or better yet, contact Susan at or 443-340-1182 for questions or to inquire about purchases directly.

In addition to the show colorway, and one particular yarn in that colorway on sale, we will be offering free shipping through the festival weekend. No special code is needed for either the sale yarn, or the free shipping.
Festival Exclusive
Festival exclusive is the colorway “Hopeful”. There are two weights of yarn on the website in that colorway, with a show sale price, (but all of my yarns and fibers will be available to order in that special colorway).
About Us
Ellen’s 1/2 Pint Farm has been exhibiting, in the main building, at the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival for close to 30 years. Our booth is always full of handpainted yarns and fibers, display garments for kits, project bags, knitting needles and assorted accessories!
We look forward to seeing everyone each May, and seeing what you have made with the yarn that you purchased the previous year. We will miss seeing everyone this year, but hope to at least get a chance to chat with all of you through our FaceBook page, and via email.
Last year we did a “corona” series of show colorways, starting with CoronaBird for the Maryland virtual show in May. This year, things are looking up! We started out this spring with a show colorway special of “Grateful” for SPA (because we are still so very grateful, we are keeping that colorway special through the show this weekend!). But now, especially with the vaccinations available, we are feeling hopeful. Therefore, we’ve got a show colorway special for this weekend, called “Hopeful”. It is inspired by the sunrise, and is a bright, cheery colorway! Please check it out and contact us if you have any questions. We plan to continue our series of show colorway specials this year with Peaceful and Joyful….stay tuned!!!
We are always available to answer questions, and email is the best way to contact us. Cannot wait to see all of you again, in person, in 2022.

About Us
Design knitting patterns for yourself, share them with friends, sell your patterns online, or submit your designs for publication!
EnvisioKnit is a software application for designing professional knitting patterns. It enables you to design patterns visually by drawing stitch symbols and yarn colors onto knitting charts. When you are done with your design, you can instantly export your pattern to PDF, Word, Open Office, SVG, PNG or a number of other formats. EnvisioKnit automatically checks your patterns for errors, writes knitter-friendly written stitch instructions for you, creates legends for your charts and compiles a stitch glossary containing all the stitches in your pattern.
Download a free demo version of EnvisioKnit Design Studio at envisioknit.com, and try it out yourself! (The free demo does everything that the full version can except save, export and print).
Check out this 15 Minute Fair Isle video and see how easy EnvisioKnit can make designing a complete knitting pattern from start to finish.
