Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Come to Fiber Folk Night on a Wednesday from 5 to 7 pm at 606 Carpenter Lane, bringing a project to work on. For a class, open the class list on the shop's site and sign up there..
You can just show up. No sign up needed.
What to expect
Fiber Folk Night is a free, two hour evening where people bring their own fiber project and work on it together, from knitting and crochet to spinning. You can walk in without signing up; registering is optional and gets you reminders. The page does not say whether tables, seating or supplies are provided.
Tips for your first visit
- Bring a project you can work on, since the shop asks visitors to bring one.
- The 53 bus stops about a 5 minute walk away at Wayne Avenue and Carpenter Lane.
- Check the shop's email and social media for last minute changes.
Newcomer welcome
Welcoming to newcomers (4 out of 5). Why we say this: Fiber Folk Night is free and walk-ins are fine, and the shop says it welcomes every skill level and helps people at any stage of learning. Beginner classes are listed, but the site describes no separate newcomer program..
Cost and commitment
- Cost
- Paid. Fiber Folk Night is free. Beginner classes run about $10 to $100 each, and some longer workshops and retreats cost $350.
