SUMMARY:Beginning Spinning on a Spinning Wheel-Spring Session
DESCRIPTION:Beginning Spinning on a Spinning Wheel-Spring Session\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Cathy Crooker \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Saturday May 21st\, 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				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.

SUMMARY:Natural Dye Basics: Mordant Dyes on Cloth
DESCRIPTION:Natural Dye Basics: Mordant Dyes on Cloth\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Sara Goodman \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Thursday\, May 12th – Saturday\, May 14th \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				The Natural Dye Basics workshop series at Sanborn Mills Farm is taught by our lead teacher\, Sara Goodman. This series of 5 classes are an introduction to the colorful world of natural dyes. Each class stands alone — take one\, or take them all! Each class will include the basics of proper fiber preparation as well as an orientation to the studio’s procedures and practices. \nIn this workshop\, students will learn how to properly mordant cloth in order to ensure good dye results and how to create a wide range of colors with natural dyes through the application of mordants on cloth. Students will first learn proper fiber preparation to ensure good dye results\, including the difference treatments for plant and animal fibers. Then\, students will learn the process of mordanting. For some reason\, this intimidates people\, but it shouldn’t—students will learn that the key is to know the range of mordant options and pair your chosen method with how you will apply the dye. This workshop will use only two mordants: alum and iron. Other metals can be used mordants\, but they can be unsafe and there are more sustainable options to create a full range of color. Students will explore mordants applied in hot and cold immersion baths\, mordants thickened and used for printing\, and mordants discharged with a citric acid solution for interesting effects. Then\, students will dye using three dye souces: fresh dye plant materials (due to the time of year of the workshop)\, dried flowers from the previous summer’s harvest\, and different concentrated extracts. Students will use these dyes in immersion baths and as thickened pastes for printing and painting. An indigo vat will be available for over-dyeing. Finishing techniques for steaming and cleaning will end the class. \n  \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				\nFiber preparation: scouring for cellulose and protein\nMordanting in hot and cold immersion baths with alum and iron\nPrinting on cloth with thickened mordants\nUsing concentrated dye extracts in immersion baths and as thickened paints\nUsing fresh and dried plant materials from the garden and forest\nMaking samples of dye colors on different fibers for record keeping\nDischarging mordants\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				Sara Goodman \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				\nAll materials will be provided\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Material Fee: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n$50.00 includes fabric for samples\, all dyes and assists\, notebook of recipes and instructions 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.
