After the wool is sheared from the sheep, women would wash, card, and spin it into the threads needed to create clothing for their families.  Anna’s Spinning Shop, named for founder Erie Sauder’s grandmother, celebrates this once vital household chore.  Wool from Village sheep is carded in the shop and then spun into threads and yarn.  Natural dyes from walnuts, berries, flowers and grasses turn the wool into beautiful skeins that are sold in the shop.
