Each year, regional retreats bring together groups of men with a passion for fiber-crafts.  The venues for the retreat are in some of the most beautiful areas. While each regional retreat differs, they offer men the chance to learn more about their hobbies, crafts and passions, and to commune with other guys who share their interests.

No one knows quite why these retreats turn out to be such amazing events. Is it the beauty of nature? Or the common interests? Perhaps the personalities of guys who knit/crochet/weave/spin, etc. Or is it the opportunity to learn with other experienced guys.  Whatever the reason, the guys agree that each retreat is a wonderful opportunity to relax with other like-minded men in a supportive and enthusiastic environment, reveling in all things fiber.
