We have offered many fiber arts classes, events, & workshop pre-Covid-19, including CROCHETING, FELTING, KNITTING, RUGHOOKING, SPINNING, LOOPING, TATTING, and WEAVING.
We have recently added our Outdoor Crafts Circle in the shop’s backyard on Wednesday mornings from 10 – 11. Just one hour (ish) – no bathroom available. You must bring your own mask & chair, snacks, water, hat, sunglasses, crafts of your choosing. We will sit 6 – 10 feet apart. Rain date if we need it will be Friday, 10 – 11. We now have two tents for shade!
We are considering Outdoor Classes for 3 students (6 feet apart) under a tent in our back yard. Please let us know your thoughts and whether you think this is a good idea.
We are working on adding a Private Appointment Calendar Scheduler to our website. We are opening slowly – 12 half-hour appointments/week on Wed., Fri., & Sat. for now. Please call 413-397-3680 to schedule your appointment (masks required). Browsing, advice, and shopping. No hands-on knitting project help at this time as 6-foot distancing is still in effect.

I’m looking for an “intro to weaving” class. I know nothing, but have been in awe of some of the fiber art I’ve seen people create, and I want to dabble a little to see if this is something I’d like to pursue. Any ideas?
