Come-Bye Fiber Trail Textile Activities: Self-guided tour of our dye garden
June 7 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
Go on a self-guided exploration of our dye garden and discover the flowers that make our hand-dyed yarns so colorful. When you stop by the Loom House, you can request our tour flipbook that becomes your guide. After time in the garden, be sure to check out the dye samples over the fireplace mantel. This activity is free with general admission and part of the Come-Bye Fiber Trail.
Come-Bye: Fiber Trail
June 1 – August 31
Conner Prairie is partnering with an extensive group of fiber vendors across the state to be a part of the “Come-Bye Fiber Trail,” a curated list of vendors who specialize in fiber artists including spinners, knitters, weavers, and so much more.
From detailed talks with the Ag Department about our Tunis Sheep to discovering how the flowers and herbs in the dye garden are used to naturally dye wool, our Fiber Trail events provide an opportunity to explore more.
Throughout the summer, our specialists in the Loom House are recreating a coverlet that was originally owned by William and Elizabeth Conner. Check back often on their progress and pick up our complimentary flip book guide to explore how our flowers and herbs impact wool.
We also have handspun and hand-dyed yarns, woven objects and other textiles items for sale in our museum shop to correlate with the Fiber Trail.
