Melissa spinning recycled sari silk on her Lendrum. Paula working hard spinning some Jakob on her new Lady Bug wheel.
On Sunday Grand River Spinners met and spun for a couple of hours at Biggby's on East Beltline/28th Street in Grand Rapids. It was tons of fun. We have some new spinners and enjoyed sharing tips and techniques together. It was also Spin In Public Day/Weekend. (http://www.wwsipday.com/) So we celebrated by drinking coffee, chatting and spinning. We had several people stop by and ask questions or just sort of stare!!
Katie is spinning a "punk rock" roving on her spindle while Alita is taking a break from her drop spindle and knitting a fantastic pair of socks!
Tamara is spinning alpaca (of course) on a wire core. While Alita and Katie pose for the photo.
If you would like to join our group we meet the 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month fromf 1-3pm. You can check out our Ravelry page and join us at Grand River Spinners. I am working on our own website and will have that up soon.
Hey, there's AllyB!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that the coffee shop was so welcoming.
One of these days I'm going to make it up your way.
Where do you guys meet on the first and third Sundays? I briefly attended a group in Fremont, but my schedule doesn't work with theirs anymore. I would like to get more into spinning again.
ReplyDeleteCome on over and try! It is really fun. We had a great time. When is your baby coming??
