Worldwide Spin in Public Day (WWSIP)
Celebrated annually on the third Saturday in September, the event invites fiber artists, from seasoned spinners to beginners, to take their drop spindles, e-spinners, and spinning wheels to local parks, cafes, and city squares. This global celebration invites spinners everywhere to take their craft outdoors and share the magic of turning fiber into yarn with the world.
