Welcome to the first issue of the Fibre Guild of Lochac Newsletter.

That's a fairly boring name, so if anyone has a better suggestion, please forward it to the Chronicler.

Many apologies for this being late, there is a long list of mundane reasons for that, which we won't go into here. One way of ensuring that future issues are more timely is to submit copy. You can send in patterns, articles, letters, reviews, whatever fits within the policy of the Guild. What's the policy? Keep reading.

You'll also find current rankings, the beginning of our comprehensive shopping contacts list and a few useful bits of information in this issue. Plus a wish-list, which every member is free to add to. There is a minimal contact list in this issue as I have not received releases from most people, but if you are happy for your contact details to go into future newsletters so that you can be contacted by other fibrecraft devotees in your area, please send me an email. This newsletter does not represent official SCA policy on anything, and doesn't even represent guild policy unless specifically stated. There is currently no charge for the newsletter, but forwarding a booklet of 50c stamps to me (address in Regnum) to help with postage would be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes,

Meetings
