Join the Weaving Adventure

Acton Creative Weave Alongs

An Acton Creative Weave Along is an online, month-long weaving adventure that happens each April and October. The program has just 2 guidelines:

  • We all start and finish a project in that month, and

  • We all use the same pattern.

Weavers of all abilities are encouraged to join in! If you aren’t comfortable creating your own project in the chosen pattern, there will be a kit you can purchase with detailed instructions and accompanying yarn that’s sold separately. 

Every Weave Along has an optional Facebook Group where you can swap stories, ask questions, and share your progress. And while the process of playing with a new pattern is always exciting, the entire experience is a perfect opportunity to bond with other weavers! 

In past Weave Alongs, we’ve explored Hopsack, Twill, Waffle Weave, Herringbone, Shadow Weave, Undulating Twill, Diamonds, and Honeycomb. Here is the Gallery Show from April 2025 so you can see what the participants accomplished –
