What is "Tokyo Spinning Party"?

Tokyo Spinning Party" is an event that "spins, dyes, weaves, knits, assembles, and sews, from person to person, hand to hand. From person to person, from hand to hand. This year marks the 20th anniversary of Tokyo Spinning Party (nicknamed "SpiPa"), the largest fiber event in Japan, where creators who enjoy handicrafts and various materials gather.

Toolmakers, wool and material dealers, classes, artists, ranchers, and learners gather to exchange information, interact, and present their works.
