Join us for a two-day journey through the vibrant fiber landscape of Whatcom and Skagit counties! Field & Fiber offers fiber lovers the chance to visit a variety of fiber farms, each offering their own take on sustainable, locally grown fiber and the handmade goods it inspires.

Led by Echo Mae, fiber historian and writer of the Know Your Fiber blog, this tour weaves together the stories of Skagit & Whatcom sheep, alpaca, and llama farms with the people and traditions that bring their fibers to life.

Whether you're a knitter, spinner, crocheter, weaver, or simply fiber-curious, you’ll enjoy:
