Vendor Show Season!

It is that time of year again for Arachne Yarns and more. I am going to craft sales in the area. I have cut the number of shows I go to down to three this year due to the opening of the store. Here is what my booth looked like last weekend at the Wheaton Craft Show in Wheaton, MN.

The next show will be in Milbank, SD at the St. Lawrence Church on November 18.

I will be at the Ortonville High School on Saturday, Dec. 2nd.


There are several more classes coming up at Arachne Yarns and More in Ortonville, MN.
On Saturday the 11th, from Noon to 4pm students can learn to knit. Just the basics. We will cast on, knit, purl, and bind off. I have several patterns to work with which demonstrate several types of designs to be created with just these few stitches. Students will receive a set of size 7 knitting needles, yarn and handouts on the abbreviations and diagrams of the stitches.

On the 15th from 6pm to 9pm we will be learning to spin wool into yarn using a drop spindle. All the students will receive a drop spindle and roving to spin. Students should pre-register for any classes they want to attend at Arachne Yarns on Facebook or at tessie1506@gmail.com.







On the 16th from 6:30-8:30 Erlys Sis (Ease Fiber Designs) will be on hand to teach a class on needle-
felting. Students will go home with a pendant and a brooch that they can wear themselves or give as a gift. This will be a fun class and we are fortunate to have Erlys available to demonstrate this felting technique.

I hope your can take this opportunity to learn a new skill. These are the last classes that will be offered this year due to the Holidays. Watch the newsletter for classes starting again next January!

The store will be official as of this coming Friday, November 10. At noon there will be a ribbon cutting! Stop in and help us celebrate if you are in the area!
