Fiber Prep Basics: You’re an aspiring handspinner or felter, and you want to learn how to prepare your own fiber. In this interactive class, I will demonstrate and discuss all of the steps to prepare raw wool for either spinning or felting. These steps will include scouring, carding on hand carders and a drum carder, and combing. Class participants will have opportunities to compare fibers and preparation techniques, as well as try the tools themselves. Participants will receive a class outline that includes definitions and descriptions of techniques for future reference.
September 13th 2- 5 pm 3hrs.
