SUMMARY:Beginners Hand Spinning with Raw Wool Processing
DESCRIPTION:Beginners Hand Spinning with Raw Wool Processing\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Prin Van Gulden \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Saturday\, October 1st- Sunday\, October 2nd \n9:00am – 5:00pm \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Workshop Overview\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				In this beginner level workshop students will learn how to spin yarn on drop spindles\, and discuss other types of handspinning as well. \nStudents will learn to spin yarn from wool grown right on the farm. Through this skill\, students will create connections to one of humankind’s oldest and most essential skills practiced across every culture for many thousands of years. Students will have a taste of the kinship that comes from relationship to history and the natural world as well as the joy that comes from learning a skill with a group of like-minded fun people. \nStudents will learn about different styles of spindles from around the world. \nAs students spin\, Prin will also demonstrate how to prepare raw wool for spinning. This workshop is unique in that students have the opportunity to learn the process of taking fleece from sheep to skein. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Skills + Techniques\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Students will learn: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nDiscuss “crimp” and “staple length” and the important role these play in spinning yarn\nDraft and apply twist\nTouch on plying and can go into more depth\, depending on interest\nWashing and carding wool\nYarn handling\nBlocking/setting twist\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Instructor\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Prin Van Gulden \n			\n				Learn More \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tools + Materials\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Students should bring: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nStudents will be provided everything needed to learn how to spin yarn on a drop spindle (Including a spindle to take home)\nIf you already have a spinning wheel and want advice on how to use it\, feel free to bring it along.\nWe’ll be focused on drop spindle spinning in class\, but Prin is happy to help with wheel troubleshooting if needed\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Material Fee: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n$30.00 paid at time of workshop\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				COVID-19 \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nPlease read our COVID-19 Policy prior to registering\nWe are honoring each instructor’s specific COVID-19 safety requests.

SUMMARY:Beginning Spinning on a Spinning Wheel-Fall Session
DESCRIPTION:Beginning Spinning on a Spinning Wheel-Fall Session\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Cathy Crooker \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Saturday October 15th\, 2022 \n9:00am – 5:00pm \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Workshop Overview\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Throughout most of human history we relied on the skills of a handful of talented spinners to make every thread for every piece of clothing\, every flour sack\, every sail on every ship. Spinning fibers into thread or yarn is one of the oldest human skills. Today\, we practice hand spinning for the joy it brings us through the creation of something beautiful and useful\, through the fun of playing with various textures and colors\, and for the relaxation of the rhythm when we sit at the wheel. \nIn this workshop\, students will enter the world of hand spinning and explore the joy of making your own yarn in this engaging\, fast-paced class. Cathy will introduce you to both wheel and drop-spindle spinning\, give you an overview of fiber prep tools\, such as the drum carder\, and give you plenty of hands-on practice and coaching to launch your spinning journey. By the end of the day you will go home with your first handspun yarn and be on your way to years of spinning enjoyment! \nThis workshop will be offered in the spring and fall of 2022.  \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Skills + Techniques\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Students will learn: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nHow to set up and manage your wheel\nThe basics of fiber prep and selection\nHow to spin a singles yarn\nHow to ply two singles to make a finished yarn\nThe basics of spinning on a drop spindle\nPractice fiber blending on a drum carder\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Instructor\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Catherine Crooker \n			\n				Learn More \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tools + Materials\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Students should bring: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nYour own spinning wheel in good working order if you have one\nA limited number of loaner wheels may be available upon request\nStudents are also invited to bring fiber they are curious to try spinning\, but not required\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Material Fee: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n$15.00 paid at time of workshop\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				COVID-19 \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nPlease read our COVID-19 Policy prior to registering\nWe are honoring each instructor’s specific COVID-19 safety requests.
