I have 5 long haired cats that I brush all the time, should I be saving their hair for the spinning class?

Laurie! So glad you can make it! As for the cat hair...I have no idea! That would be a Diane question! Hopefully she sees it and can answer for you!
osagegypsy, we'd love to have you! Check your schedule and let us know!!!
~hugs,
April :)

April,
How far are you from Vermillion, SD? Not far. I would like to come, but need to check with hubby...is it ladies only? I home educate and will need to adjust my schedule. I want to learn to drop spindle. I've tried spinning a foot or so of LGD undercoat and it was amazing. I have a book on it. Also, the t-shirt yarn. I might not be able to come until Friday evening.
I love the upper Midwest! |

As for the cat hair question...I think it has to be washed and carded first? You should bring it but keep it away from me, I am allergic! LOL
I am so looking forward to this outing! Really need some farmgirl time.

Vanessa,
You are about 4 1/2 hours from us. Coming Friday would be just fine. Have you ran it by your hubby yet? We'd love to have you with us!

As much as I would love to be there, I'm afraid it's a no go for me. We have horses in the OK State Fair Gypsy Horse show the following weekend. Busy time for us at the ranch.
You girls have a great time under the stars!

Okay, April.
Do I need to bring you money? Is there going to be a place that I can get drinking/cooking water? I can bucket. We found out that our battery fell off its screw and leaked and we are working on that. I have to make sure that the black water tank holds.
I am okay with roughing it, but you all might like me to have a sponge bath.
Do I need to bring rovings? Old t-shirts? Can you make a suggested supply list for the activities? I am sorry that I am a bit clueless. I'm just new I guess.
I love the upper Midwest! |

We do have water you can use for cooking/etc., as far as a checklist of things to bring, I will get on that asap! :) We are getting a headcount and figuring out logistics with what we will suggest for some of the activities etc. I will post more details very soon and I'm trying to get a firm dollar amount and supply list from the teachers for the classes. I'm so excited you are able to make it! I'll keep you in the loop! :)
~hugs,
April

April,
As for the Tarn class, farmgirls should bring some old t-shirts preferably without too much graphics. Printed are ok if they are not the rubbery kind. Scissors and large crochet hook size P or above. The t-shirts without side seams work better. I will bring extra hooks and some patterns and projects.
Dutch oven cooking: bring dutch oven, charcoal, charcoal starter etc... I will bring recipes and we could shop for food together.
I will include some of this in the snail mail I am sending you.
