The proposed new manual will be sent to the membership at least 10 days prior to the meeting.
The advanced training session at the meeting will be a presentation on Natural Dyes. Janie von Dohlen, Chapter member and longtime weaver and spinner will do a presentation on renewable and sustainable natural dyes made from plants, animals, and minerals that are used to dye clothing and yarn.
