Talented local teachers run workshops for all abilities in knitting, crochet, weaving, felting, and spinning. Our emphasis is on personal and community well-being through the learning and sharing of fibre arts skills, including outreach work. Everyone is welcome to come in and sit with their fibre related work in progress, perhaps treating themselves to a drink and a slice of cake!
