Woollington

Why Woollington? Part one of two...

Every six months or so a group of yarn people from the wider Wellington region come together and share yarn and treats with you.

But why in this format? Woollington's kaupapa is based on including our diverse whānau and friends in the joy that is making - we all value looking after the health, wellbeing and freedom of expression that marginalised groups deserve.

It's an event we love to welcome everyone into - without any fear of discrimination or judgement. Here's how:
😷 mask-wearing is respected! We also encourage you to stay home if unwell to look after those in our community who have wobbly health.
🌈Our rainbow community is celebrated! We acknowledge our much-loved friends and family who love in many and various ways, and/or are trans, non-binary or gender-fluid.
🏳️‍🌈We take donations for the Gender Affirming Fairy Godmother Project, which provides safe gender-affirming clothing to those in need.
🌈The will be at Woollington again sharing their amazing craft project making a Chosen Family neighbourhood in yarn and stitches
👩‍🦽The venue is accessible - there is a ramp to enter the venue and no steps inside. There's always plenty of room to navigate with mobility aids.
🫶We know there is inherent privilege in being able to buy nice yarn, so it's totally ok to come and browse and simply be there for the vibes. Join us for social sitting and crafting and there's no need to buy if it's not in your budget.
