You might contact your local county extension agent. At least in Texas,
clothing design and sewing are big activities in 4-H.

OH YES!

And here, I don't know if it's 4-H but there is THE coolest contest called
"Sheep to Shawl," where people raise the sheep, spin the thread, weave (or
knit or crochet) and make a garment. WOW. I was stunned the first time I
saw their stuff.

When we lived in CA, there was a cute craft shop that had these beautiful,
VERY large Christmas stockings. The tag said, "Stocking knitted by Mary/Wool
donated by Bessie". TOO SWEET!

We love Sheep to Shawl - here, they set up a festival in the
Spring and you can spend a couple of days going through each
step, learning in some detail how the steps are done. The 6 y.o.
and I are about ready to replace the emus with some sheep, though
friend husband remains enamoured of the "dinosaurs" in the back
yard.
