Textile Makerspace
About
The Textile Makerspace provides a drop-in space for Stanford students, faculty, and staff to sew, knit, crochet, weave, and do other hands-on creative work with textiles. We have an assortment of sewing machines (including a serger/coverstitch), rotary cutters, patterns, and fabric and yarn you can use for free. We also have knitting machines, a standing (counterbalance) loom, an embroidery machine, and embroidery digitization software. If you'd like to work on your project at home, we have take-home crochet hooks, knitting needles, simple looms, and mending kits.
How to Access
- The building is usually open (without card access) during regular business hours.
- Come by during any of our open hours (which often change, check our website to be sure) to access the Textile Makerspace on the second floor.
