Hello Friends of the Cottage! 

Welcome to the 2025 Fiber Festivals and Events List. 

I update this list regularly and keep it current, so keep checking back!

After a festival or event has taken place, I am archiving it so that 

you will find the most current / upcoming events at the top of the list.  

As always, please email me at allyson@thatchedroofcottage.com 

to add a festival or correct any information.

This fiber festival list is a true labor of love — researched, updated, and shared 

so fellow yarn and fiber lovers can find joy, inspiration, and community.

If it’s been helpful to you, I’d be so grateful if you’d consider supporting it. 

You can pick up something cozy from my shop 

or drop a little kindness in the tip jar over on Ko-Fi.

I'd like to keep this going year after year. 

Every order or donation helps cover the time, tools, and tea 

it takes to keep this resource going strong.

Thank you for being part of this corner of the fiber world.
