Blue Ridge Fiber Fest
June 6 - June 7

History of the festival
The first annual Blue Ridge Fiber Fest was held in Sparta, North Carolina on June 2 and 3, 2018. This area of northwest North Carolina and Southwest Virginia is deeply steeped in the tradition of the fiber arts. Set among the mountains, just a few miles off the Blue Ridge Parkway, Sparta offers a small town quaintness, not far from bigger cities and a more metropolis-like atmosphere.
The Mountain Homespun Fiber Guild is a great support for the fiber fest. The guild provides demonstrations of the fiber arts; makes vendors and guests feel welcome, teaches basic knitting and crochet to interested folks and makes small gifts for each vendor and instructor. We are always thankful to the guild for their great support of our festival.
