North Devon Spinners meet at Berrynarbor Manor Hall on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday in the month from 2.00pm till 5.00pm

Subscriptions £5.00 per annum plus 40p per meeting to cover the light refreshments.

Our meetings are informal with help and advice given to beginners and we have a spinning wheel available for people to have a go on.  We also hold occasional workshops and make visits to different venues and events.

A number of our members keep sheep including coloured ones and some also weave the wool they spin. We have a small library and try to keep up to date with new ideas and designs.  Young and old, you are welcome to come and see what we are doing.

Update March 2002

We were able to resume our meetings in September after the miseries of the Foot and Mouth disaster.  In November we had a delightful lady who showed us how to make ‘funky felt hats’.  The demonstration was clear and straightforward making several of us feel we had to get home and try that.  We brought our first attempts to the next meeting, holes and mistakes notwithstanding, but determined to try again and do better.  Great fun, the same procedure works for making teacosies, bags or cushion covers.

Just before Christmas there was a display of some of our work in the Berrynarbor Manor Hall on the occasion of a party welcoming newcomers to the village. Our little Christmas party was as usual accompanied by a slide show of Kathy’s latest trip, which was to North West Canada.

This year we celebrate our 21st Birthday.  In the early summer we will have our Rainbow Day – trying out natural plant dyeing, and a felting demonstration. In the autumn we hope to go to the Willow growing Farm near Taunton.
