Tea Towel Exchange – we will have a tea towel exchange on Saturday.  Please indicate, on your registration form, if you will be participating or not and, if so, bring your tea towel with you to Camp.  We will have a display of tea towels before the exchange. 

 

Sock Yarn “Mini Skein” Exchange – do you have odds and ends of commercial, machine washable sock or fingering weight yarn?  How about exchanging some for new ones?  Just bring some to Fibre Camp and we’ll organize a swap.  Skeins or wound into balls, 5 – 20 grams each for a total of 100 grams, labelled and packed into a clear zip lock bag.  You will have enough to make a crazy pair of socks, a sock head hat or add them to your sock yarn blanket or Magic Ball Shawl.  Mix it up!!

 

New!  Mug “Accessory” Exchange - Every mug needs an accessory! Our new feature this year is an exchange of something that all mugs need. Is it a mug rug? A cozy? A carrier or a sleeve? Is it knit or crochet? Or maybe it’s woven or felted? You decide! Bring your mug accessory with you to camp and we’ll place it in a plain paper bag and number it. Numbers will be drawn on Saturday night for all exchange participants. Questions? Drop us a line!

 

Book Sale – Not this year. 

 

Impromptu Fashion Show/Show and Tell – bring, or wear, a finished item to dinner on Friday evening.  This event will take place, after dinner, in the “Chapel” and give everyone a chance to see what you have been working on and get inspiration from these lovely projects.  If you have completed projects from previous Fibre Camp workshops, please bring these in for us to see.

 

Guest Speakers – after dinner on Saturday evening there will be a panel, of our workshop instructors, discussing their “creative journey”.
