Handwork Series - grade 2

I've been wanting for a while to do a series of posts on my suggestions for Handwork in each grade. So I will work on that now! These are my own ideas of what to do when, partly informed by my Waldorf Handwork Teacher Training and partly by what I think works well from personal experience.

If you are interested in training, I very highly recommend the Applied Arts Program. Admission to the 14th Cycle of the Applied Arts Program is now open! It will start on March 15, 2026!

    This four-year program meets for two weeks each summer and one week each winter, covering two grades each year. Course sessions take place at the Fiber Craft Studio, which is located in the Threefold community in Chestnut Ridge, NY, just 30 miles from New York City.


If you're looking for a curriculum with videos and whatnot, I recommend Waldorf Handwork Educators. Currently they just have grades 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Now on to my notes. I'll update them if I come up with new ideas:


dyeing


wool birds with carded rainbow wool


sewing


embroidery


wet felting


butterfly stitch

    loop for string games

    cord for recorder bag


knitting


crochet

    border for diamond washcloth
