We offer a friendly environment where members gather to learn a variety of fiber arts: several types of loom weaving, coiled and reed basket making, spinning, felting, knitting, crocheting and macrame. The club also holds workshops, hosts spinning bees and arranges fun field trips throughout the year.
We have many hand-crafted items for sale in the clubroom and support members in learning how to make their own items to keep, share with friends or give as gifts. Please stop by our clubroom at Oakmont to learn more. Our members enjoy making new friends while learning new skills and we would love to have join us!
