SOAR
Whew. kathrynt and I just came back from SOAR, a week-long spinning and fiber arts retreat held this year in Sunriver, Oregon. We learned lots of interesting and wonderful things, met some interesting and wonderful people, and had an all-around pretty great time. My brain is currently full, though.
For future reference, it is possible to put two *each* of the following into a Toyota Corolla:
woman
spinning wheel
drum carder
rigid heddle loom
large suitcase
set of wool combs
set of wool cards
niddy-noddy
big box o' spindles and other random tools
... as well as many kinds of cheese and a week's worth of booze, space to be filled on the return trip with fiber purchases ... and still be able to see out the back window!
