Schacht Anniversary Party and Contest Opening


Barry Schacht gets a spindle. Our Production Manager, Cindy Lair and our Technical Manager Filip Sokol constructed this exact giant (8 foot tall) replica of Schacht's first spindle. Thanks to Judy and Maggie of Shuttle, Spindles, and Skeins for loaning us the roving for the presentation.


Barry Schacht, CEO, started the evening's program donning a wig--to look very much as he did in 1969!


A sampling of some of the entries--do not worry specific details to come.

The wall of skeins.

Thanks to Bud and Lois of Bountiful for sending the pictures!

Thank you for the pictures! I'm too far away to come see the display. The items are beautiful!
