Celebrate Spinning & Weaving Week!
October 1-7, 2018

Spinning and Weaving Week is a celebration of the international traditions of our crafts. Join hands with fellow weavers, spinners, dyers and basketweavers around the world and immerse yourself in the the pleasure and opportunity to learn and teach. Enjoy the thrill of seeing someone spinning or weaving for the first time. Teach them the pleasure of using their hands to create yarn from fiber, to create fabric from yarn, and to make dyes and baskets from the nature around them. We invite all weavers, spinners, dyers and basketweavers around the world to join together in celebration of our common heritage. Learn more about Spinning & Weaving Week on HGA’s website.
