You may have noticed it’s been pretty quiet on here for a good while, and pretty quiet at The Fibre Loft. WE HAVEN’T CLOSED!!

Been waiting for a permit from the town, which I apparently needed and it’s just been granted so now we are all official YAY!

So I’m now gearing up getting organized for new courses and workshops starting in a few weeks.

I’m super excited to be seeing old (as in been here oreviously) and new faces and getting stuck in to some new projects and skill learning for everyone.

Stay tuned for more info on the way shortly!
