These games are purely for fun – but they require spinning expertise, too!
Competitors will gather in our Marketplace to test their spinning skills in short spurts by spinning blindfolded, wearing gloves, using unusual ‘fibers,’ or working in teams. If we have a large number of sign ups, groups of competitors will be chosen via lottery and notified on June 23, 2019.
For each Silly Spinning Game, the winner(s) will be judged by spinning the longest yarn in 5 minutes:
- With bare hands/eyes open
- Spinning with cotton gloves
- Spinning with rubber dishwashing gloves
- Spinning tinsel
- Criss-Cross spinning in teams (each treadling her own wheel while drafting into other orifice)
- Spinning blindfolded
To try YOUR luck, please sign up by 6 p.m., June 22, 2019. Questions? Contact spinning.events@mafafiber.org
