SPINNER’S CONNECTION: GROUPS AND GATHERINGS 94 HELLO SPINNERS! We’re excited to offer you this resource guide. It offers the compiled index of Spin-Off (twenty-three years of spinning articles, profiles, projects, gallery pieces, stories, and more), as well as the most up-to-date information about spinning guilds in your area and resources for finding the supplies you need to pursue your craft. The Spin-Off Index and Resource Directory is both a reference tool and a storehouse of information. It is also a marker of where we’ve been and a sign of where we’re going. When I think of our spinning community, I think of the diverse group of people represented in the pages of Spin-Off. I also think about our common bonds and our desire to share our experiences and knowledge. And this knowledge keeps growing; I receive good proposals for articles and projects almost daily. Like the history that stretches out behind us, way back before recorded time, our future is broad and seemingly limitless. Even so, few people outside our community are aware that hand- spinning is alive and thriving today. My challenge to you for the next twenty-three years is to bring this passionate pursuit of ours into the light of the public eye. Take your handspindle with you—spin as you wait in line at the post office, grocery store, or bank; spin as you ride the bus to work, on your lunch hour, at the laundromat; spin at PTA meetings, in the park, at the airport. Smile at the folks who look at you curiously or ask what you’re making with your “.” Show them how to make , tell them why you love to do it, and encourage them to learn how. Let’s usher in the next generation of spinning by telling the world our secret—that the peaceful humming, the meditative rhythm of twisting and drafting, the comforting tug of the wheel on the yarn, is a tremendous gift for peace and harmony. Let’s share it.

—Amy C. Clarke editor, Spin-Off
