Basket Workshop

The October 13th meeting of the Mercer County Spinners and Weavers at Munnell Run Farm at 10:00will be weaving a wool drying basket with Lyn Croskey Peterson. The basket is about a foot square and sits up on four short legs so that air can circulate all around it – hence a drying basket.  Which of course can be used for anything.  Lyn is asking $22.50 for the materials and her time.  She needs to order the materials so is asking for money and reservation by Oct 1.  You can send it to Lyn Peterson  526 Line Rd  Mercer PA 16137.
 
If you signed up at the dye work shop, we got you.
 
Two people said they would like some of the alpaca fleece that is in my garage.  I didn’t write your name down, please email me.  If anybody else would like some please let me know.  The only stipulation is that if you get a bag that is the blanket (the nicest part of the fleece) you also have to take a bag of leg hair.  Verna Greenan cleaned and spun the leg hair and said it is also very nice.  I really need to get it out of my garage.  Did I mention that it is free!!  Bonnie
