2025-2026 Meetings & Workshops

Upcoming Meetings and Workshops

January 10: Dawn Barker presenting on My Journey into Assigned Pooling
February 14: Weaver and Spinner’s Poker Challenge. In September, those wishing to participate in the annual Challenge received five randomly selected “cards.” The “suit” of the card is an attribute of the project (e.g. draft, color, fiber). Each card contained a specification for that attribute. Each participant may eliminate one card. The resulting set of cards specifies the challenge. At the February 14 meeting, the participants presented their creative and beautiful responses to the challenge.
