Fleece Competition

Where would Spin-In be without the fiber of our four-footed friends?

....calling all fiber producers! Are you interested in an opportunity to show what you produce?....

If so, please consider entering a sheep, llama, or alpaca fleece (or two!) in our 2008 Spin-In Fleece and Fiber Show.

Registration will take place for an hour before the judging begins and the exact format of the show will be determined by the fiber entered.

Entry fee - $2.50 per entry.

If you are interested in selling your fleece or fiber please pre-weigh it and decide on your desired price, so these can be marked when you register. Sales are to be made between the exhibitor and buyer, unless prior arrangement has been made at registration.

We ask that all entries remain on display after the show is complete for at least two hours, and as long as is possible for you! 

All fiber shown must be from animals owned by the exhibitor.


Show classes:

• 1.  White Fleece - covered or not covered fleeces are both welcome (depending on numbers, the fleeces may be separated accordingly).
  
  Untied, skirted fleeces displayed in clear plastic bags.
  
  Divisions - fine, medium, coarse.
  
  A champion and reserve champion fleece award will be awarded.

• 2.  Natural Colored Fleece - again, covered or not covered are both welcome (depending on numbers, the fleeces may be separated accordingly).
  
  Untied, skirted fleeces displayed in clear plastic bags.
  
  Divisions - fine, medium, coarse.
  
  A champion and reserve champion fleece will be awarded.

• 3.  Exotic Fibers - llama, alpaca.
  
  

Classes, divisions, and awards will be dependent on entries.
