All public meetings are open to non-members, so if you have an interest in weaving or spinning we welcome you to join us.
Our regular guild meetings are held from Sept. through May. Check this event calendar for the dates and locations of the meetings.
Sage
Weavers is a discussion group in which we show our work, ask and
answer weaving questions. Beginning weavers are always welcome. Anyone interested in weaving is invited to attend.
High Flyers is a spinner's gathering and is a socially oriented get-together. If you spin, bring your wheel, drop spindle or charka. New spinners are always welcome and we will be glad to mentor you on a wheel or drop spindle. You may also bring your knitting, hemming projects, rigid heddle etc. or simply come to watch. All are welcome.
Reno Fiber Guild has formed a subgroup of Kumihimo Braiders. If you have a Marudai gathering dust, or a foam disc you haven’t pulled out for a while, we invite you to join the BRAIDING BUNCH. There are unlimited uses for braids, from trims to jewelry and more.
The Braiding Bunch get-togethers are informal and for all levels of braiders. Get started on a foam disk or use this designated time to get your braiding ideas into the light. We will be sharing instruction, techniques, and materials as well as each other’s company. We meet once a month, typically from 11:00 AM to 2:00. The “Where” each month is determined based on library or member residence availability.
