ABOUT EXTEX24

In 2023 the Cape Guild of Weavers hosted an innovative and exciting event to help revive enthusiasm for ancient textile skills like weaving, knitting, felting, spinning and dyeing.

The two-week event offered multiple workshops, hosted by experienced fibre artists at the Richard Crowie Hall in Kirstenbosch. This year the event is back!

ExTex24 will again offer an extensive array of fibre arts workshops. We'll also have our pop-up shop back bursting with all manner of felt, yarn and stunning lifestyle products and wearables for purchase.
