Berry Spinners and Weavers Exhibition was held at the Berry Court House on 2-3 July 2005 and the Berry Spinners and Weavers really excelled themselves in their craft this year.

There was a very strong flavour of Alpaca woven throughout the exhibition, showing that there are a number of Alpaca owners among the members. The garments and articles were professionally and beautifully made, showing wide variety of skills and techniques.

Berry members have also created a Kids Corner by encouraging children to have a go at our ancient craft beginning with techniques in French Knitting, cardboard weaving, weave-its, felting knitting and two shaft weaving. All of the wonderful crafts that have led us to our present day love of working and creating with natural and synthetic fibres.
