Ironwood - There was something for almost everyone on display at the Pat O'Donnell Civic Center Saturday as the building played host to the Cabin Fever Craft Show.

The annual show - which ran from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday - had 63 vendors from throughout the region, including Phillips, Wis., and Iron River, Mich., according to civic center manager Brian Roehm.

The vendors offered a variety of handmade and manufactured goods, selling everything from yarn, sheep fleeces and glass-housed, preserved insects to soap, wooden bowls and carved, wooden artwork.

While Roehm said a majority of the funds raised from vendor fees go toward advertising the show, the remaining funds help operate the civic center.

The show also offered visitors something to eat from the civic center's concession stand.
