More Takoma Park Indie Fiber Goodness…

If you had fun at the Homespun Yarn Party (or you didn’t make it), you should c’mon out to the Takoma Gazebo (in old town) for the Old Town Knitting and Craft Fair.

Here are the official details:

Event: Old Takoma Knitting and Craft Fair
Date: Sunday, May 18
Time: 12:00 – 4:00 pm
Location: Old Takoma Gazebo – Red Line Metro to Takoma Station, four blocks North on Carroll Avenue
(across the street from House of Musical Traditions)

Join some of your favorite local yarn dyers, including Mama E’s C*EYE*Ber Fiber, Storm Moon Knits, and Woolarina, plus designers, writers, jewelers, and crafters for an afternoon of wool-inspired bliss. Designer Amy O’Neill-Houck will be signing copies of hers latest book, The Color Book of Felted Crochet. Also enjoy the Takoma Park Farmer’s Market which will be open from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm.

I won’t have any of my handspun (below) for sale, since I’m spinning just for the fun of it, but I may bring my wheel, to demonstrate my novice abilities!
