We are the Brecknock Guild of Spinners, Weavers, and Dyers; a group of people of all ages, from a wide range of backgrounds, with one thing in common – we love to craft!

Joining the Brecknock Guild

New members are welcome to join our friendly and supportive Guild, whether you already have experience of spinning, weaving or dyeing, or want to learn a new craft.

For those just starting out, Guild members are on hand to help you learn the basics, and to offer advice on equipment and materials needed.

Once you are a member, we have Guild equipment, such as spinning wheels and looms to rent. We also have a Guild Library for our members use.

No matter the craft, if it is fibre related, we will have members ready to offer support and encouragement.
