Oh, the things we find . . .
When we search for the title "Clicking Needles". We found another blog with that title, started just this past October. Hmm, no offense, but you wonder if the title wasn't googled before starting said blog. Although, the blogger definitely has a better website address. :)
Fiber content will continue on Thursday. Robin is coming up for a fiber swap our guild hosts. Fiber (yarn, roving, raw fleeces), equipment, needles, books, patterns, fiber, oh, did I mention fiber! Lots and lots of fiber. I'll try to remember my camera to show off the wonderful assortment of items up for grabs.
What is a fiber swap? Well, guild members bring items they no longer want or had extra of. We place all the items on a table, the floor, and any other space we need to hold the items. We all draw numbers and then get to choose an item when our turn comes. We continue on until all the items are chosen or no one else wants to choose anything. Um, I don't think we have ever run out of items. Any extra yarn gets donated to the local thrift store. Fun, fun, fun!
And Robin is coming up for the swap! I'll try to take some pics of her too. She really does exist, honest! She just finished her first semester of graduate school. I think she said she is doing very well too! Great news all around.
All of us guild members look forward to the swap. We're a generous group and have members that have phenomenal stashes they clean out at this time of the year. Really great stashes! We don't care if a member doesn't bring anything, they can still choose items. We're there for fun and to get rid of items we no longer want. If we just happen to, um, pick up a few extra items along the way, well that's just a perk! This means that for newbies, this is a great way to increase the stash.
Many of our members are vendors and they will bring items they can't sell or have extra of, just to be generous. It's a great guild.
Okay, I'm off to finish up work and then home to finish a baby sweater. I hope to have pics up tomorrow or this weekend.
Happy fibering all!
