Yes, it&#8217;s spinning time.  I&#8217;m going to bring fiber, drop spindles, and the spinning wheel.  We&#8217;ll talk about fiber, pass some around, and try spinning a little just by twisting it.  Then we&#8217;ll break off into pairs with drop spindles.  One girl will draft the fiber, the other will keep the spindle going.  Then they&#8217;ll switch.  Then they can have a turn at the wheel.  We&#8217;ll see how it goes.  <lj user=illiane> or <a href=\"http:\/\/turtlegirl76.com\">Turtlegirl76<\/a>, you should stop in sometime during the meeting from 6-7 before you go to the BAM.  I imagine it&#8217;ll be amusing, if nothing else.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve found some sites with good ideas about spinning programs.  I may ask in <lj user=spinningfiber> too for more suggestions.  Maybe I can turn my Brownies into little mill workers.
