Spinner's Flock

Lynne let me tag along today to the monthly Spinner's Flock meeting. Great fun! I have been wanting to go for about, um 5? 6? years... yep, I'm a big wussie!

Anywho, there were LOTS of people there

Join the group. I have found that spinners and weavers are a special breed. My group is happy to share information and I just love the support that we spinners give to each other.

I am sure that in no time at all you will make heaps of new friend and learn enough to keep you busy for a while.

Mel, I have not bought the Lendrum yet. I have to save a little money first & then I am going to have to sell the Louet to raise the rest. :)

That's the scary part, selling the Louet before getting the Lendrum... eek!

What a great post! I am glad we went, too. Always more fun with a friend.

A nice thing about the flock is there is no pressure to join - you can keep coming to meetings, and people are happy to chat with you and sell you stuff. Joining is cheap ($25), and for that you get a newsletter, access to the yahoo group, permission to rent wheels, and an outlet to sell at meetings. But if you don't need those perks, you can hang around the fringes indefinitely, I think.

Yes, you can hang around indefinitely. It's a fun group even if it is huge. Come back!!
