Fiber Frolic at St. Mary of the Woods College

It's time to start thinking about registering for the 2014 Fiber Frolic at White Violet Center in St. Mary of the Woods College just west of Terre Haute, Indiana.  Come for a weekend of learning and laughter!   The weekend is always amazing.   Choose a focus: spinning, weaving, felting.  The weekend is geared toward beginners, no fiber experience required. 

I'll be teaching the spinning section again this year.  All materials and equipment are provided.  If you've been wanting to learn how to spin your own yarn, then this is a great chance to come and be with other beginners, in a peaceful and beautiful place to learn to spin.  There is plenty of time to practice through the weekend and you'll leave with your own handspun yarn.  


Registration makes a fantastic Christmas gift!   More information and registration info here.
