Almonte Textile Museum


Last week our rug took a little road trip. There are at least three of us who are having separation anxiety because we have left it at the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum in Almonte. If anyone has the time, take a road trip up there yourselves and check it out. The town of Almonte is very quaint and the textile museum itself is a learning experience both about the history of the family business of the Rosamond Woolen Company and also just to see all the different period equipment used for making wool from sheep. The website is www.textilemuseum.mississippimills.com.
