Regular place and time
Shawnee Indian Mission at 7pm
Knitting with beads
I missed last month so am going to try
again to talk about knitting with beads. Meaning using beads in the cuffs
on knitted socks, scarves, and other items. I will bring my
bead spinner if I find it in the unpacked boxes before then and also the
size of beads I use in my knitting with beads. I will bring a pair of my
socks that have beads on the cuffs.

November 16 4-9 and Saturday, November 17 10-5 at the Sylvester Powell
Community Center

to our mailing list of 1,600, and the media has been blanketed with
detailed press releases. I know you would enjoy dropping by the show to
see the set-up and enjoy the creative products your fellow guild members
are offering for sale. You might even get some early holiday shopping
done! Be sure to catch the Fashion Show, Friday, November 16 at 7:00

wearable art. I hope to see you there!
If you want to come by the show and lend a hand, we can always use the

Loom For Sale!
4-harness,
6-treadle loom, sectional back beam The little bench goes with it.
Replaced some of the heddles and the beater bar (he still has the original
beater bar). The reed in it now is a 28”, 8-dent reed. He has the
original 12-dent read, but it’s not in great shape. He made all of the
shuttles and the bobbins in the picture. One warping stick was broken,
so there’s only one at the moment. There’s a text book that came with
it. He’s owned it for 4 years and used it mostly for rugs. He says it’s
built to take a lot of tension, it’s very sturdy. Warping
board included. He’s asking $400.

From
the Editor:
Thanks to all of you who sent me stuff this month! I think I received more
emails to add to the newsletter this month than I have received the whole
time I have been newsletter person. Everyone should be working on all of
their wonderful fiber goodies and getting them ready for the Creative Hand
Show. If you are not going to be in show, then come on down/up/over and
check it out this year.
and remember......
Just click on
spindeb@aol.com
and send me your news, ads, event coming up, etc...
I would rather have them in
email form. It is just easier for me. I am less likely to loose them if
they come via email at the later part of the month.
Have a great
Turkey Day!!
Debbie
