Ozark Folkways Fiber Fest 2026

October 3 - 9am-4pm

October 4 - 10am-4pm

Celebrate fiber arts and small-town charm at the Ozark Folkways Fiber Fest.

Fiber Fest is a free, family-friendly event. Ozark Folkways seeks to entertain the whole community, encouraging guests new to and curious about fiber arts or life-long serious artisans--something for everyone.

Fiber arts include creative media of thread. Well-known skills include sewing, lace making, felting, quilting, spinning, knitting, crocheting, and embroidery.

Ozark Folkways promises this year’s Fiber Fest to be an immersive experience for all ages and skill levels. Attendees will find many fiber arts-related activities and goods, including exhibits, vendors, installations, workshops, demos, a silent auction, and a contest.

2026 Charity Hat Drive

Yarn Alchemy is hosting a charity hat drive benefiting CASA of NWA! We will be collecting hats all year long to add to CASA Christmas boxes for area kids in foster care. We need over 400 hats of varying sizes! Each hat in the graphic represents 10 hats. Lets color all those hats in before Christmas!

Please use superwash wool, cotton, or acrylic blends for easy care. A range of sizes is appreciated - big kids need warm heads too!

Drop off hats any time the shop is open.
