Fiber School Update

Fiber School status update:

Group room spots are sold out. You can still sign up for a standard room and be put on a wait list for the discount if there’s an opening.

Private rooms for Yarn School only are currently sold out, but we may have space available to convert some rooms to private. If you’d prefer a private room but you’re flexible, you can sign up for a standard room and ask for the private wait list.

There are 2 Free Bonus Dye Lab extension spots left for folks attending both Yarn School & Rigid Heddle School.

PHONES ARE DOWN DUE TO WEATHER (but email’s fine)

Due to widespread areal flooding (I’m using a NOAA word–who says “areal”?), or the storms in general, or what-have-you (I’m just guessing), we have no incoming or outgoing long distance service (though the internet, which is DSL, is mysteriously still alive…). So unless you’re already in Harveyville on another land line, you won’t be able to call.

If you’re coming to Fiber School & need help, please email nikol@harveyvilleproject.com. I’ll be checkin my email at least hourly.  Hopefully, the phone issues will be resolved today.

 

Fiber Treasures Retreat photo roundup!

Last weekend, we hosted a delightful group for the Fiber Treasures Retreat, an intensive specialty spinning retreat taught by Teri Plemel (FiberTerian) and Christine Long Derks (TreasureGoddess). Lovely spinners and stunning yarn, and windy but fair Kansas weather. Photos from Teri & Christine.

At the end of the workshop, students wove tiny masterpieces with their beautiful creations, a brilliant idea to showcase small amounts of handspun. I may have to steal this idea for Yarn School. (Photos courtesy of @fiberterian. If you attended the retreat, please send your photos to add!)
