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 to use foraged wild materials for use in the dye pot. On the first day of class\, students will learn the proper fiber preparation and mordanting for cellulose and protein fibers with both alum and iron. Protein (yarn) and cloth samples will be dyed in these baths. The class will then go outdoors to collect dye materials. At this time of year there\, there will be many materials available for collection. Students will collect leaves from trees\, nuts\, bark\, wildflowers\, roots and lichen. The class will then return to the studio with their collected dye treasures to photograph\, identify\, and prepare the material for dyeing. Most collected material will require an overnight soak before being made into a bath. Possibilities for modifying colors by changing pH\, adding iron\, and over-dyeing with indigo will be explored. \nStudents should be prepared to walk the grounds of Sanborn Mills Farm\, including woods paths\, trails\, and fields.  \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\nIdentifying dye materials in the field\nExploring\, collecting\, and processing foraged dye material\nMordanting with alum and iron\nMaking samples of dye colors on different fibers for record keeping\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				\nStudents should dress and prepare for walking outside in the woods\, trails\, and fields\nGardening gloves and clippers\nStudents are welcome to bring dye stuffs with them that they have collected on their own for the group to try\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Material Fee: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n$50 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.

SUMMARY:Traditional Felt Making with Raw Wool Processing
DESCRIPTION:Traditional Felt Making with Raw Wool Processing\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Prin Van Gulden \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Saturday\, October 8th – Sunday\, October 9th \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				In this workshop\, students will learn the process of wet felting. Wet felting is a magical way to turn loose wool fibers into fabric without spinning\, knitting or weaving. It is method employed in everything from making hats\, slippers and warm boots to the felt homes of Central Asia. This ancient technique differs from “needle felting” and some other felting techniques in that wet felting relies only on the nature of the fibers\, a little soap & water\, and some elbow grease to make a beautiful rugged fabric. \nStudents will make bags using a resist method of felting that is applicable to all kinds of projects. Prin will discuss other felting methods and traditions of the craft while students work on projects. \nStudents will also learn about the process of preparing wool for feltmaking. For this workshop students will use carefully prepared fiber for projects\, but will learn how to get from raw wool in all its messy glory to clean prepped fiber ready for feltmaking! \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				\nSupported wet felting\nUsing a resist in feltmaking\nCarding wool (a preparation for felting\, spinning & other wool crafts)\nWashing wool\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				\nAll supplies and materials will be provided\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.

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.

We’ll take time to observe subtle patterns in nature as we forage for color\, seeing through the lens of the naturalist ink maker. Traditional ink making plant materials\, such as buckthorn berries and oak galls\, ground our color palette with durable bold tones\, while pokeweed and wild grape lend an ephemeral splash of brilliance. Beyond specific ink recipes\, students will gain an understanding of the general process for making natural dye-based inks. We will explore tannins in particular\, a family of plant chemicals responsible for many long-lasting dyes and inks\, including the classic indelible dark writing ink. Students will have a chance to experiment with the colors we create\, using various papers\, writing utensils\, and modifiers. Everyone will bring home a set of inks! \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				\nA general process for how to make and use any natural dye-based ink\nLearn specific recipes for making traditional inks\nIdentify plant materials for ink making\nIdentify tannin sources in the landscape\nUse binders to affect the nature of the ink\nBest practices for storage of natural inks\nBest practices for kitchen ink-making\nDevelop an understanding of ink modifiers and how to use them toachieve various effects\nMake hardwood ash lye\nMake a reed dip pen from foraged materials\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				Berkley Heath \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				\nA notebook\npens/pencils\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.
