Get ready to fall in love with punch needle! Join local fiber artist Tyler Sanville as she guides you through this uniquely North American art form, which originated from 19th-century rug hooking. Using a special tool, you will learn to punch loops of yarn into woven cloth. Tyler will also share the fascinating history of this craft and its evolution over time. Her modern approach is influenced by her background in environmental advocacy, offering a fresh perspective on this time-honored technique.


This beginner-friendly workshop allows participants to use a Lavor adjustable punch needle for hands-on practice in creating their own unique rug. No previous experience is required!
