We will once again offer free learn to knit classes as well as two intermediate offerings for all furloughed government employees and federal contractors during the shutdown. These classes are now open for registration for this week’s line up! We are aware of the current administration’s actions to end contracts and employment. Any currently furloughed or recently terminated federal workers are welcome for these classes. Pick up a new stress-relieving skill and find a new community at fibre space. Registration is required. The cost is free.

Join us on October 11 for Fall into Fashion! Originally a collaborative effort with the City of Alexandria & locally owned retailers in the 1950s, the Old Town Boutique Community is bringing Alexandria Days back! Here at fibre space you can join the yarnistas as they demonstrate how to best wash and care for your sweaters and other hand-washable items. Your local wool experts invite you to stop by our second-floor demonstration station to learn how to safely clean, reshape, and store your knits.

Furloughed? Join us Monday for stitcher bingo!

We invite those impacted by the furlough or layoffs to join us for an afternoon of stitching and bingo! Plan for a bit of distraction and lots of fun and connection. Feel free to bring: a bingo dabber or stitch markers (we will also have chips), a current work in progress if you want to multitask, & any snack or beverage you wish!
