Hands On Weavers also known as the ‘HOW Group’ are a collective of people who enjoy a revival of First Nations traditional weaving and storytelling practices.
The HOW Group encourages people interested in coming together to share each other’s stories about their journey in the revival of fibre and basketry weaving in the Riverina.
The group meet weekly between 10:30 am - 12:30 pm at 204 Tarcutta Street Wagga Wagga, with Wollundry Dreaming. Drop in and yarn with us for more information about weaving with us.
Through cultural exchanges and collaborations with other First Nations weavers, we embody and share a collective of skills in harvesting, coiling, twining, looping, sewing, bush dying, spinning, threading and gathering.
