Bring a wheel, loom, knitting or crochet project, or even if you’re curious about it all, just come on by! We’ll be setting up in the backyard and enjoying the craft together. Feel free to bring a comfy chair too! We’re inviting local indie dyers to set up trunk shows of their art as well. Frivolous Ewe , Ewe 2 Me 2 U and KnitSpin and Leaf Livestock will be there sharing their work! Promises to be a lovely gathering for all.

This will be a fun day in a beautiful large room with lots of natural light. All types of wheels, spindles and e-spinners are welcome. Join us for social spinning time! Participants can bring a sack lunch, pre-order a box lunch from Flyleaf Bakery Cafe located inside the Batavia Library or step out to an establishment in the local community.

Activities and amenities at the event will include a For Sale/Wanted Board (note that the Library will not allow sales to be made inside the venue). Business cards can also be posted.

Attendees are encouraged to bring item(s) they have made that illustrate how hand-spun can be used in knitting, crochet, weaving, etc. Please label items with your name, fibers used, methods used in prepping and spinning the fiber and any patterns used to create final project. Index cards will be provided on-site for those who need them.

We can't wait to see you!

Hosted by our two close spinning friends, Roxanne and Cyndy. Esther’s Place will be there in the morning to join the fun.
