Fiber Arts

Jessica Robin's Mend It, Darn It meetup grew from the closure of INTERFORM into a monthly community gathering where people repair clothes and connect through craft at Fayetteville Folk School.

Crystal Bedney, owner of Serious Fiber, won the Main Street Fort Smith Commerce Collective pitch competition and plans to open a yarn shop at 409 Garrison Ave. with classes and community events.

Pete is joined by Katie Teague with the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture, for a conversation about the 2024 Fiber Festival, happening Nov. 8 and 9, in Fayetteville.
