9am to 4.30pm

Creative knits, wild weaving, imaginative crochet and fabulous felting, plus all the supplies you will need for the coming winter and beyond. Mark your calendars for this beloved annual event: Sutherland Shire Spinners & Weavers Winter Wool Fair on Friday and Saturday, 29 and 30 May 2026.

This year's theme is ‘Out of the Blue’. Our talented members will showcase their incredible work in weaving, felting, handspun and hand-crafted garments. Prepare to be dazzled by the hues of sea and sky, lapis and sapphire.

As always, we’ll have a wonderful array of traders selling a variety of fibre and yarn-related products. It's going to be a shopper’s paradise!

Don’t forget to save the dates and check out our flyer for all the details. We’d be thrilled to see you there 9am to 4.30pm Friday and Saturday in the Uniting Church Hall, Corner Flora and Merton Streets, Sutherland, a five-minute walk from the station. Scones, sandwiches, cakes and other refreshments available.

SSSW is one of the oldest established craft associations in the Sutherland Shire. Our group began informal meetings in April 1969, formalised in 1970, and moved to the Cronulla School of Arts. Membership grew rapidly, reflecting a resurgence of interest in handcrafts during the 1960s and 1970s.

Workshops and excursions are plentiful during the year. Calendar events include a yearly Winter Wool Fair, challenges, stalls and charity input. We welcome newcomers and enjoy mentoring and helping those who seek to learn new fibre skills.
