Welcome! The New Weaver Forum is intended to be a place to talk about problems, challenges, questions, and inspiration for the newer weaver, or maybe an experienced weaver trying something new! It meets the third Thursday of the month on Zoom. You’ll find the actual dates and Zoom link in the Calendar.
