We are not a business & do not sell items through this page. All creations are shared for inspiration, education, and engagement. 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." Our regular meetings are held the third Saturday of each month at 10:00 am at the Shippensburg Library, in Shippensburg, PA
Our History:
In 1995, Pat Wenger and Caroline Winslow decided that the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival didn’t happen often enough for their fiber needs, both inspirational and material. In August, they, along with Shirley Holtry and Peggy Thompson, met for the first time as the South Cumberland Spinning Guild, to spin wool and talk about fibers. As others joined, we changed our name to the more inclusive South Cumberland FIBER Guild and have been meeting ever since. At first we met in members’ homes, then settled on the Shippensburg Public Library as a good central meeting place.
