We are a group of fiber enthusiasts who promote the art of spinning. We
meet monthly, during the day, usually the first Friday, at the Givens-Belet Memorial Hall,
on Route 521 in Blairstown, NJ, just south of Route 94. Meetings start at 10:30 am and run until about 2 pm. Four meetings
of the year are business meetings, and at the rest there is usually a
program involving some aspect of the fiber arts. A guest may attend two
meetings before application for membership becomes mandatory. Membership
dues are $20 per year.
This lovely lace shawl by member Bitsy Cohen, using her handspun yarn, took a 3rd place at Maryland Sheep and Wool in 2012! |
In addition to our monthly meetings, guild members frequently demonstrate spinning and other fiber arts at various fairs and events in the area, including the Garden State Sheepbreeders Show in the fall.
