In this uncertain time we hope we can bring a little sunshine by announcing that the applications for the Fall 2020 Indie Knit and Spin are finally open!
This year we have changed locations to the wonderful Nova Place on the North Shore of Pittsburgh (photos below). The event will take place October 3rd, 2020 and, because we have so much more space, we are hoping to bring in more vendors than ever before.
A couple of key things to note:
– This event will only occur if Allegheny County is in Phase Green according to the State of Pennsylvania due to measures to protect the public from the spread of COVID-19.
– Many of our staples (raffle, give away table, etc) may be impacted by the health crisis, we will be communicating more on those details closer to the show.
– To reduce crowding we are restricting vendors to 6 foot deep booths with widths in increments of 6 feet (making booths 6’x12′, or 6’x18′). It sounds strange but trust us, it works great.
– In order to become more accessible to up and coming vendors we are now also adding a 6′ table option! Vendors must, however, supply their own table…
– Because things can change very quickly we will be allowing cancellations with full refunds of booth fees (minus processing fees) up to two weeks prior to the event and half refunds (minus processing fees) all the way up to the day of.
– With our new location we will be able to accept even more vendors! So if you didn’t make it in for past shows, be sure to apply again.
– In case of mandatory cancellation due to government intervention full refunds (minus processing fees) will be distributed to all vendors.

Just like last time we are asking everyone to apply through the following form:
Applications are open until May 30th and selections will be made by June 7th.
Thank you for your interest and please feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
