Says Nancy Shay: "Started my journey to SPA last night. Stopped in Lowell to spend the night and pick up my traveling companion. This morning while knitting I found a new knitting buddy, Simon!"
From GeorgeAnn Duval:
SPA 2013 promises to bring fun and laughter. What more can a gal ask for! Well, this tops them all... a hank! Yay, I've niddy noddied my first fibers into a hank that I'll cherish (albeit pretty funny looking). Moreover, I sense that friendships shall be forged that will hold fast through the years, intricately woven to stand the tests of time!

From GeorgeAnn Duval:
"Spa Train to FiberTastic Alley"
As I waited for the Spa Train this morning I felt like I was stepping into a scene of Harry Potter... Did I bring every thing I needed? Will someone take the 42 lbs of yarn that I so painstakingly packed home as their own (orange bag) What would the vendor lane be like? I imagined it would be like Harry feeling like he would need another eight eyes to take it all in! Tomorrow will tell as I venture to the Diagon Alley of Spa 2013, where there will be shops selling yarn, both thick and thin, and craftsmen selling spinning wheels both compact and elaborate!SPA 2013 promises to bring fun and laughter.

Fiber Vendors for NETA SPA 2013
Last Updated: 01.04.13
Here are the fiber vendors who will participate in our Mercantile for NETA Spa Knit and Spin 2013. We'll post the therapy vendors in a minute or two - there are three this year!
(note: actually, we haven't contacted the therapy vendors quite yet to confirm, so I'll post that list once they know - they should get told first, right?!?!? :-P)
There are several new folks on the list, as well as many of your favorites returning again. Our goal was to give you a group of artisans from all over New England, who will bring a wide variety of fibers, products, skills, and energy to share with you. We think these talented people will do just that, and we hope you'll agree!
See you sooner than it seems! (February isn't so far away!)
