Prairie Wool Weavers is a group of rural weavers and spinners, of all ages, that meet the first Monday of every month at 10:00 a.m. at a members home to share ideas and experiences.  The members are innovative and willing to try any project.  No challenge is too great.

One long time member says of the group, "Prairie Wool Weavers began in 1977 as a loosely woven organization of slow moving funseekers and in a quarter of a century plus, has become a closely sleyed guild of complimentary idea spinners binding friends with rainbow wefts".
