Best Knitting Instructor Santa Rosa Near Me

4worldlovers: Fiber Circle Studio is a makerspace and marketplace for all things yarn and fiber, located in the heart of downtown Petaluma in the beautiful wine country of Northern California.

We offer the community a range of fiber art related workshops, workspace and quality supplies in the areas of weaving, spinning, fiber processing, dyeing, knitting, and more.

Our goal is to provide a warm and safe space for all levels of fiber artists, from new to expert, with all the resources, equipment, tools, and knowledge to explore one's creative journey in a place of community, support and inspiration. In addition, we believe in providing our community with quality supplies that are sourced from small batch, and local producers.

When you wander through the shop, you'll find yourself discovering yarns you probably have never heard of. Our focus is on small brands with a story. It's important to us to be able to trace back where the fiber comes from, how and where it's been dyed, and how every person along the way has been treated (including the animals). In addition to specliaty, high end small producers, we're making sure that the larger brands we work with also follow this crucial philosphy.

Below you will find a few of the lines in our shop being highlighted along with their story! We hope you fall in love with their work like we have and help us support the story we want to share when we make our hand made items.
