Our mission is to explore, create and inspire with fibre and to achieve this we share, promote, teach and preserve the cultural activities of spinning, weaving and all other crafts that use wool and/or other fibres. One way to do this is through our network of groups, of which we have over 120 throughout New Zealand. Our members share and learn from each other, and many life-long friendships are formed. Groups provide interest and activities such as workshops, retreats, spin-ins and exhibitions and organise public demonstrations of our crafts. If you are interested in joining as a group member, click on a region below to find a group near you. Each area has a delegate and he or she will be happy to help and answer any questions you have.
