Interest Groups
Please join us as we gather to learn from each other, work on individual and group fiberart projects, and socialize.
Knitting & Other Handcrafting
The Knitting & Handcrafting group meets each Wednesday of the month from 1:00 pm-4:00 pm at Yarn Harbor, 4629 E. Superior St, Duluth. This is for all handcrafters to visit and show what we’re doing–perhaps you will also see something new to try!

The Tapestry group meets on the 1st Wednesday of the month from 5:00-6:00 pm in the DFG Studio. The group shares progress on individual tapestry projects and also discusses current events and information from the world of tapestry weaving. All are welcome.

Beginning Weaving (Evening)
This group meets the 1st Thursday of each month from 6:00 pm-7:15 pm in the DFG Studio.
The goal of this group is to provide support and encouragement to beginning floor loom weavers. This group is open to all experience levels, but will be focused on beginning-level skill development. We are currently working on a project sewing handwoven fabric into a tote or a top.
