How to Take Charge of a Dirty Fleece
Two-part class: Fiber Prep plus Beginning Drop Spindle
Saturday, September 16th at 8:30am - 5pm (with a break for lunch)
Instructor: Cathy Dye
Learn to take a raw fleece all the way through the necessary steps to end up with your very own yarn! We will do all the Fiber Prep - washing, combing, carding - in the morning. Then in the afternoon after a break for lunch, you will learn to spin that prepared fiber on a Drop Spindle. You will learn all the basics including: why and how spinning works, how to add new fiber to the yarn, how to remove the yarn from the spindle, and finally how to ply. Students will go home with their own new drop spindle and more fiber to prepare and spin.
