Spinning Workshops

Students will "get to know their yarn personally" when they join us in the barn to meet the sheep that will provide the fleece. You will select the fleece you wish to work with when creating your very own yarn. Then we go to the carding house to turn the wool into "roving" which is the strand of fibers you will spin. From there it's back to the studio to sit down at a wheel and actually learn to spin! We guarantee you'll be making yarn on day two, and you'll be very excited when you reel your yarn from the bobbins, and watch as the lustrous fiber flows through your hands.

If you're a knitter already, we'll sit down next to talk about the wonderful look of knitted and spun yarns and help you design your own ewe-nique garment.

If you are not a knitter, you can opt to have us show you the basics. We can help you get the feel of this timeless handwork skill that can go anywhere with you.

With these wonderful classes, we give you the chance to express your creativity in the clothing you and your family wear!
