Learn the basics of blending fiber. If you've spun on a drop spindle or wheel before and want to try out new fiber preparations, this class is for you! We'll create batts and rolags, and we'll introduce tools including the diz, hand cards, blending boards, and the drum carder. If you're looking to try out these tools (or have your own and need some advice), this is the class for you! (We won't be covering spinning, but feel free to bring your spindles or wheel to try out your fiber blends!)If you have blending tools or fiber already, please feel free to bring them to the workshop - some fiber and add ins will be provided, and a 10% shop discount will be available for additional materials if something else catches your eye! *Branch out from spinning commercial top, and make your own custom blends and gradients.*
