any finished product with
the fiber and have it ready
to show us at May's meeting. Remember that yarn
is a finished item! If you
still would like to participate, we have ordered
more fiber and will have
more available at our next
meeting. Come play

VICE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
GOES HERE
Dear members,
If any of you would
like to share with the
woolpack at our November meeting, here is your
chance! Our meeting this
month will be about making quick and fast, cute
Christmas gifts. They can
be knitted, crocheted, or
felted. Anything you can
do with yarn or roving,
which we all probably
have plenty of these
things! If you would like to
present an idea at our
meeting, please send me
your name so I can put
you on the list of presenters that night. I would love
to have lots of participation cause the more
ideas, the better! Help me
to make this night a learning experience for us
all!
Thanks, Cheryl Stratton
