A social space for individuals who want to hang out and work on their projects. Bring a project to work on, something to share with others, or come to get input and inspiration from the collective.  

Do you want to hang out but you don’t have a project? Are you not sure where to start? We have a variety of FREE fiber arts supplies so you can try out crochet, knitting, sewing, or bracelet-making.

Your project should be something you can work on with other people present and be worked on sharing table space. Come out, socialize, connect with resources, or take a short mental break in your busy day.

  • FREE supplies and tools provided by University Libraries:
    • Limited supplies for various fiber arts including crochet, knitting, and sewing
    • Sewing machines
    • Crossword puzzles and coloring
    • Check out the tools in the Curriculum Materials Library in the Steelcase Library
  • Bring Your Own (BYO) materials and tools to work on
    • leatherworking, chain maille, bullet journaling, beading, illustration, scrapbooking, stamping, needlepoint, tatting, papercrafts, polymer clay, sketching and drawing, calligraphy, and zines (any non-hazardous craft where you can work in proximity to others, share table space, and easily clean up after oneself.)
