| Linda HargrovesFiber Spinning Linda learned to spin while spending long hours caring for her mother. To keep herself occupied, she bought a spinning wheel and some fiber and taught herself the craft, and a true love of the art took hold. She is involved in the local and regional fiber community, teaching, giving advice, and rehabilitating neglected spinning wheels. She also raises alpaca for fiber. |
| Marie SchurkKnitting Marie has been knitting independently for 8 years and selling her knitwear locally for 6 years. She caught the teaching bug several years ago after participating in a knitwear demonstration for high schoolers. Knitting is her favorite hobby and when she is not teaching, she is always looking to learn new techniques. |
