Welcome to NoVA DSA’s Fiber Arts group!
This group aims to promote, celebrate, and build community around the fiber arts, including knitting, crocheting, sewing, embroidering, felting, and needle-punching. This group is a way for members to develop fiber skills, mitigate burnout, and connect organizers who normally work in different realms.
Overall, we believe having a fiber arts community strengthens our bonds as organizers and community members while curating a low-barrier space where organizers can exchange ideas and be creative.
Everyone is welcome, and we are kid friendly.
We are knitting/crocheting things (hats, blankets, etc) to donate!
Everyone is encouraged to bring their current projects. If you don't have a current project, crochet plastic yarn for mats with us. (Bring your clean plastic bags to recycle into yarn!)
Please bring any items to be donated (finished hats, blankets, socks, hygiene items, non-perishable food, etc) for the next NoVA Mutual Aid WG distribution event. Our Amazon wishlist is here.
Free EC 4 DC kits! The Bodily Autonomy Working Group, in partnership with EC 4 DC, will provide reproductive and sexual health care kits at this event. These kits are free, and include a dose of Plan B, pregnancy tests & cup, condoms, and an informational zine. Please note you may take as many kits as you wish. This is first come, first served.
