Sit 'n Spin
Join Lori on Thursday afternoons for some quality time with your spinning wheel. We had several customers stop in to watch Lori ply some yarn. Definitely some potential for new spinners here! We'll spin and chat from 2 - 4 p.m. each Thursday in June and July.
Do It In Public
Knit, spin, weave, or crochet at Shattuck Park in Neenah on every other Wednesday evening. The next concert is July 8. This was started by the Weaving Guild. This is the Evening Concert Series and it's best to get there early. The group meets at the back of the seating area, in front of the stage. The concert schedule and time is available on the Future Neenah website.
Midwest Fiber Fair and Folk Art Fair
Ready for a road trip? Come to Crystal Lake, IL for the Midwest Fiber and Folk Art Fair on July 17-19. This is our third year as a vendor at the show and we've got something a bit different this year. In addition to our Hand Maiden yarns, Isager yarns and pattern books, Maggie Jackson, of MaggiKnits, will be joining us! We'll have her garments to try on and plenty of her yarn and books, so you can make your own MaggiKnits Creation. Maggie's bringing some new "toys" that you'll definitely want to see in person.

Join us as we knit our way across the southern counties this fall. The trip dates are Nov. 14-22, 2009. Shopping, sightseeing, meet-and-greets with local knitters - this trip promises to be as much fun as the last one! More details...
