Weavers’ Yard Sale
Got yarn, books, or equipment that you are wanting to part with? Slap your name and a price on it and it may find a new home! This is always one of the most popular parts of the gathering – for shoppers and buyers – as it’s a great time to reduce or increase your stash. There is no cost to participate, just make sure your name and a price (or “Free”) is on everything you are selling/giving away, and be prepared to manage your own sales. If you are selling items, come at 12:30 to set up your sales table.
Tea Towel Exchange
If you bring one you will get one. Towels should come wrapped up like a gift. Don’t forget to bring a record sheet to share. All attendees will get a booklet containing all the record sheets.
Lunch
Lunch will be served at 1pm. Followed by the You Fashioned It Show and the Ask a Question...Get an Answer segment.
- You Fashioned It Show – bring your items (wearable or not) and be ready to tell us a little about how you made them. This will be very informal!
- Ask a Question...Get an Answer - do you have a question or problem that needs solving. Now is a chance to get help or advice. This is also a chance to share tips and tricks or useful hacks.
Display
Bring your samples or projects from our 2025 workshop “Weaving with Hand-painted Warps Workshop” with Kari Fell for display.
