The 2024 Bloomington Spinners & Weavers Guild Fiber Arts Show and Sale will be held on Friday, November 1 (4 – 9 p.m.) and Saturday, November 2 (9 a.m. – 5 p.m.) at the Monroe Convention Center, 306 S. College Ave., Bloomington, IN.
We will once again have a Mitten and Hat Tree at the November Show and Sale with items on the tree to be donated to the Monroe County United Ministries (MCUM) Early Childhood Learning Center for children and their families. This year’s tree will honor the memories of Dorothy Hanvey and Kerry Conway.
We invite all fellow crafters to donate to the tree! While many patterns are available on Ravelry and in print, we are pleased to provide the following knit patterns from both Dorothy and Kerry!
Dorothy Hanvey’s mitten pattern from the 1997 November Show and Sale
Kerry Conway’s Hat for Carrie Ann pattern
