This will be a fun day in a beautiful large room with lots of natural light. All types of wheels, spindles and e-spinners are welcome. Join us for social spinning time! Participants can bring a sack lunch, pre-order a box lunch from Flyleaf Bakery Cafe located inside the Batavia Library or step out to an establishment in the local community.

Activities and amenities at the event will include a For Sale/Wanted Board (note that the Library will not allow sales to be made inside the venue). Business cards can also be posted.

Attendees are encouraged to bring item(s) they have made that illustrate how hand-spun can be used in knitting, crochet, weaving, etc. Please label items with your name, fibers used, methods used in prepping and spinning the fiber and any patterns used to create final project. Index cards will be provided on-site for those who need them.
