World Spin in Public Day

September 20 is World Spin in Public Day, and Sauder Village is celebrating! This is the kind of spinning where you turn wool into yarn – not spinning like a top – but you can spin like a top in public too if you want!

We are joining other spinners worldwide celebrating the age-old process of turning wool into yarn. You’ll be able to interact with spinners from throughout our area and even try your hand at spinning wool on a spinning wheel or a drop spindle. Cheer on your favorite spinner in our spinning contest. Shop for village produced yarn and wool as well as hand woven or knitted pieces in our Museum Shop. All this fun is included in your Sauder Village admission for the day!

Are you a spinner interested in joining the fun? Local spinning guilds and individual spinners may bring their own wheels and spindles, wool, and share their love of spinning! Pre-register as a spinner for FREE: https://saudervillage.org/classes-events/details/2025/09/20/default-calendar/world-spin-in-public-day
