We are beyond excited to partner with @knittherainbowinc, an organization that collects new and unworn handmade knitted and crocheted garments to distribute to unhoused LGBTQ+ youth. Originally located in New York and New Jersey, Knit the Rainbow is now growing its network--and we are happy to join as a drop-off partner for the DMV. fibre space will now collect knit and crochet winter accessories that will go directly to LGBTQ+ youth in our community to help make the winter months a little more comfortable. The incredible organization SMYAL @smyal_dmv will handle distribution to local unhoused LGBTQ+ youth. For over 40 years, SMYAL has provided essential support and empowerment to LGBTQ+ youth in the Washington metropolitan region and beyond.

Just Landed! Single origin, American grown, American dyed, American spun - there are so many reasons to love Jill Draper Kingston! Kingston is sourced from Targhee wool from the finger lakes of New York. Jill Draper and her team then dye the fibre in the wool and send it off to New Hampshire where it`s spun woolen-style into a round and bouncy 3-ply yarn. Each colorway is named after a street in Jill`s hometown of Kingston and reflects the vibrant shades of Fall in the Hudson Valley.

This incredible fair isle design by Caitlin Hunter is our feature this #MustMakeMonday. The Ovis Sweater and Hat patterns by @boylandknitworks uses two colors of DK weight yarn. We love it in one of our fully traceable woollen yarns like Laxtons Wooltrace DK, Jill Draper Kingston or Ériu Elements.

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.
