The Joy is in the Making...

The softness of fleece. The sheen of cottons. The rich, luscious colors of wools. Working with fiber is an experience that nourishes all the senses and awakens the spark of creativity. Color...texture...shape and form...beauty, brought to life.

FireWatch Weavers offers classes in traditional floor loom weaving, weaving on the dobby loom, European and Navajo tapestry, and inkle loom weaving. We also can introduce you to spinning with the treadle wheel, the Great Wheel, the Indian charkha or the drop spindle. We provide a "loom finder" service and can order various models of Harrisville and Leclerc looms and equipment. We also offer free consultations for equipment and weaving questions, and will do our best to help you determine a solution.

We specialize in offering expert weaving and spinning instruction in a congenial, slow-paced environment, where support and companionship are paramount. You have the gift; we are here to help you discover it.
