Hi, I'm Felicia from SweetGeorgia! I'm a weaver, knitter, machine knitter, spinner, dyer, and the founder of SweetGeorgia Yarns and the School of SweetGeorgia. On this channel, I share my experience as a life-long multicraftual maker and how I manage time, energy, resources, and focus in my creative process.
Based in Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada, SweetGeorgia is a maker and a media company. We make artisan hand-dyed yarns and spinning fibres for knitters, crocheters, weavers, and spinners worldwide. Through our online school, the School of SweetGeorgia, we also create educational media to teach the world about textile arts and crafts.

Calling all our weaving friends! We are starting a new weave-along for you called the "Winterful Weave-Along"! This weave-along will officially start on November 12 and run until December 23 and is open both rigid heddle and multishaft weavers. I uploaded a quick video about it today (https://youtu.be/UtLnAoiAACE?si=70ehn...) and yesterday, I talked about it at greater length on our School of SweetGeorgia Live Office Hours livestream. You can find both on our channel now.
And if you are interested in signing up, please visit: sweetgeorgiayarns.com/winterful-weave-along/
Can't wait to weave along with you!
