Step into the Greenfield Village Weaving Shop, where artisan Mendy Grenz is hard at work weaving huck lace kitchen towels. Our weavers work year-round using traditional looms and techniques to make towels, blankets, scarves, socks and more ─ often using wool yarn from the village’s own Merino sheep.
Observe artisans in action every day in Greenfield Village and, for a limited time, dive deeper into the history of craftsmanship in “Handmade: The Crafting of America” at Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. Through January 18, explore 100+ rarely displayed artifacts that highlight folk art, the Arts and Crafts Movement, modern craft and more.
