Westview Primary Spring Carnival

On Saturday, May 4, seven of our intrepid Flowertowners (and Ewenice the Sheep!) demonstrated "From Sheep to Sweater" at the Westview Primary School's Spring Carnival in Goose Creek, SC.

There were a LOT of folks there and we may have sparked enough interest in some of the younger attendees to inspire a whole new crop of future knitters!  We also had lots of questions about the Guild from parents and teachers.  And a few of us tried our hand at learning to spin (WAY harder than it looks!!).
