Fiber in the Forest & ETC Fiber Retreat
Fiber in the Forest and the ETC Fiber Retreat are held at Camp Myrtlewood, a scenic rustic retreat located in the Coast Range off Highway 42, 40 miles west of I-5.
Dormitory lodging with bunk beds is available. Bring your own bedding and towels for hot showers. There are 12 RV Spaces with electric and water hook-ups, as well as plenty of tent space. We regret that pets are not permitted.
Meals are especially delicious and include vegetarian options.
Fiber in the Forest May 19-21st, 2023
Enjoy three days of weaving, spinning, dyeing, felting — and fun! Three-day workshops are taught by enthusiastic fiber teachers—with plenty of free time for hiking, talking, and enjoying the spring!
The $450 price includes participation in one workshop, room, and board. The materials fee is paid directly to the instructor at the time of the workshop. Classes start on Friday morning (9 am) and continue through Sunday afternoon.
Every year we enjoy the Open Air Gallery. Bring your homespun, handwoven, knitted, felted, or otherwise handcrafted creations for all to admire. Each item should be labeled with the artist's name and a description of the techniques and fibers used.
Next year's workshops will include ...
