Weaving Circles
View List of Certified Leaders
Weaving Circles bring weaving into the traditional craft circle, a gathering to feel the joy of handwork in a loving and supportive atmosphere. The reward in personal transformative experience is expanded by the opportunity to serve our communities and our world through Circle of Service projects, contributing funds, energy, or knowledge in your own community or anywhere. A Weaving Circle has the power to make a difference in the world.
Testimonials from Circle Members, Leadership
Students and Circle Leaders
Get behind the mind
Weaving a Life keyforms, woven with the fingers, calm our minds, and call into action both left and right brain simultaneously. This integration of logic and intuition, of thinking and feeling, integrates us in deeper ways. Many weavers report feeling a deep peace weaving the keyforms, especially in a circle with others.
Weaving the keyforms brings us to a place behind the mind, behind our outer persona to experience ourselves in a new way.
Benefits for Children

Weaving Circles are wonderful for all ages. The benefits to children in self-esteem and creative achievement make Weaving Circles a wonderful school or club activity. Children who feel as if they have no creativity find such joy in handweaving. Learning to appreciate each other without judgment is an important aspect of Weaving Circles; children learn new ways of socializing and gain new confidence through this activity.
Weaving Circle activities can be the springboard for learning across the curriculum. Weaving has played a large role in history; natural dyes have particular chemical reactions with wool fibers that are interesting and safe to explore. Weaving Circles can be used to meet state learning requirements in health and well-being as well as in creative art, history and science.
