The Paper bag raffle runs from opening time (10am) until 1:30pm. Raffle winners will be announced starting 2 pm.
Objective: Spin at least an ounce of Ramie top and show the yarn in action
Rules: To participate submit a sample of your handspun Ramie yarn and a small item made from that yarn. Participants receive 2 ounces of Ramie top. Participants may spin that fiber at any thickness and number of plies. The project might consist of a swatch, or a complete item (holiday ornament, jewelry, small bag, wash cloth etc.). Any fiber art (e.g. weaving, knitting, crocheting, bobbin lace) may be used to show the yarn in action. Dyeing the fiber is allowed (please, remember, ramie is a cellulose fiber and not compatible with acid dyes.), so is the addition of non-fiber items (e.g. beads, starch to stiffen the shape etc.). However, only the ramie fiber handed out for the challenge may be used for the yarn. Submitted items and yarn together should weigh at least one ounce.
Finished items must be submitted latest by 10:30am on Roc Day. Angelika will collect items before Roc Day.
There will be three prizes: Best looking yarn, and best use in finished item, both awarded by public vote, and a third prize for best craftmansship awarded by a judge.
With any questions contact Angelika St.Laurent
Please drop off your dishes before the potluck starts (11:30 am). Don't forget to lable your dishes.
