What we’re about
This group is for fiber crafters in and around Delaware (PA, MD, NJ friends and more are all welcome!) Knitting, crochet, spinning, sewing, embroidery, cross stitch - whatever your fiber craft, you're welcome to join us! 💕🧶🐑🧵🪡
We'll get together for all sorts of crafty gatherings - mostly in and around Wilmington and Smyrna DE. We occasionally host events elsewhere in DE, PA, MD, and NJ.
Have an idea for something we should try? Send us a message!

Please note: All Fiber Friends events are for adults only, unless the event details specify that children are invited to attend. The group organizer reserves the right to remove any person from membership or leadership at any time.
Profile photo and username policy:
All Fiber Friends should have a profile photo that shows your face and your user name should include your first name, or whatever name you prefer to be called. We're so excited to meet you, and this helps our event hosts and other members know who to look for!
Note: Fiber Friends who have been asked to update their photo and/or username to follow this policy and don't do so within two weeks of being contacted may risk being removed from the group.
Attendance policy:
Individuals who RSVP to an event and have their plans change should update to "not going" more than 24 hours before the start of the event. Anyone who doesn't show up and doesn't update their RSVP at least 24 hours before the start of the event will be flagged as a "no show." 24 hours notice allows our wait list time to adjust if they're moved to the "going" list.
Individuals with 3 or more "no show" events may risk being removed from the group.
If something urgent comes up within 24 hours of the event, please contact the the host. We understand that sometimes things happen that we can't predict, and the "no show" may be waived for extenuating circumstances.
Safety measures for events:
Safety measures will be specific to each event, and may include mask or vaccination requirements, or limited attendance. Please follow the safety measures requested by the event host or mandated by the event venue. The host (or venue) may ask individuals who do not comply to leave the event. Failure to do so will also result in a warning - individuals who do not comply with safety measures a second time will be removed from Fiber Friends.
