Have you been crafting with all your new treasures?

We hope you had a wonderful time at this year’s Peace Fibre Fest, and that you found loads of inspiration while you were here!

We had 23 vendors and 5 information tables this year, and just over 400 people came to the event, with 32 people upping their knitting, crochet, spinning, felting or macrame skills in one of our 5 classes. We also had a “Crafts & Crime” chat hosted by Jamie with the Dawson Creek Public Library, and a cozy seating area where people could gather and craft together, as well as a “Sit and Spin” area.

Did you find any special goodies while you were here? I know I did! Please, share a photo of your yarn and what it has become, or your new yarn bowl or project bag in use out in the wild!



Help us share the word!

We’re so excited for this year’s event, and we’ve got lots of great new classes and vendors for you. With no local newspaper in Dawson Creek any more, we’re going to do more online advertising this year, but we’d love your help spreading the word! Our poster is printable in black and white or colour, on regular size 8.5 x 11” paper if you can put one up in your local community centre, library, etc. Click here to download and print it.

Vendor lists, a floor map and classes - it's time to plan your day!

Our full list of vendors is now up on our “Vendors” tab, so go have a look and download the floor map, too to plan your route around the show floor! If you’re interested in picking up a new skill, check out the “Classes” tab too, where you can see all the classes and descriptions, and register for a class. Spots fill up quickly, so if you’re really set on one, sign up soon.

Classes!

We’ve got them! Are you joining us? We’ll have some of our regular popular classes, such as Drop Spindling, Felting, and Amigurumi Crochet classes again this year, but we’re also bringing in two new teachers for an awesome macrame class and a finger knitting class, where you can complete a whole cozy lap blanket in just 3 hours!
