Tomorrow, August 22nd, marks 3 weeks until Fiber Frenzy! 🎊

As we get closer, we will be sharing more information about the event. Today we are featuring one of our participants, Alabama Fiber Festival! They will be offering yarn winding and custom pinback buttons at Fiber Frenzy. These services are offered in exchange for monetary donations to the Alabama Fiber Festival. For the buttons, bring your own scrap of handspun, tatting, or any other small, flat treasure to be turned into your own custom pinback button! This is such a fun way to support the Alabama Fiber Festival, a two day event happening this November!

We are so thrilled to have our Alabama Fiber Festival friends joining us and hope to see you at Fiber Frenzy on Saturday, September 12th! 🧢

🚨 Meeting Announcement 🚨

Join us this Saturday to ask questions and get help from our fellow fiber-geniuses-in-residence at the Fiber Genius Bar, register your pieces for the Homewood Public Library show, sign up for Fiber Frenzy Demo tables and connect at a slower pace before the β€œfrenzy” of Fiber Frenzy in September.

Stations will include a spinning table (focused on spindles), weaving, Ravelry** and a weave-in-ends body doubling table (you have to weave in your own ends, but you’ll have lots of moral support!) Bring your questions, your wonky spinning, your half-warped (portable) loom, your knitting that has unintentional β€œdesign features,” the sock toe that won’t Kitchener, your swatches that need a sixth opinion on color pairing, and anything else tht would benefit from another pair of hands and eyes.

**If you would like assistance with Ravelry, please bring your personal device (tablet, phone, laptop) for optimum help. πŸ’»πŸ“±πŸ“Ÿ

We will have snacks, great company and lots of fun! So come on out and hang with us! πŸͺ🧁
