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!

AMAZING!!!
FLORENCE KNITTINGALE: This 91-year-old
woman has knitted a hospital to raise money...
Instead of shearing a single-coated Shetland sheep, a
process called 'rooing" is an alternative. Watch this
Shetland yearling being "rooed" for the first time.
An expertly woven nest! Unbelievable!!!
Watch how linen (from the flax plant) and
cashmere (from cashmere goats) are
processed into amazing cloth!

A very interesting video providing a first-hand look

Well worth the time to watch during this time of isolation.
