Welcome to the website of the SOUTH CUMBERLAND FIBER GUILD.
Our Guild is open to spinners, weavers, knitters, crocheters, felters, rug hookers, shepherds, plant fiber growers and others interested in the art and craft of fiber and textiles.
We meet monthly for workshops, field trips, demonstrations for the public, or to gather
just to spin, knit, crochet or work on a "project-in-progress."
Please browse our pages to learn more about who we are and what we do. WE WELCOME ANYONE WHO ENJOYS WORKING WITH FIBER TO JOIN US!

"A FELTED HISTORY OF SPINNING"
Watch how linen (from the flax plant) and
cashmere (from cashmere goats) are
processed into amazing cloth!

FLORENCE KNITTINGALE: This 91-year-old
woman has knitted a hospital to raise money...
How do you choose the right yarn for the next project you have in your que? This Interweave article
by Lisa Shroyer,
is a great resource to aid
you in making an apppropriate choice.
A very interesting video providing a first-hand look
into the amazing life of an Afghani shepherd.
Well worth the time to watch during this time of confinement.
Instead of shearing a single-coated Sherland sheep, a
process called 'rooing" is an alternative. Watch this
Shetland yearling being "rooed" for the first time.
