Fleece to Yarn Workshop May 18th and 19th 2013


I am running another workshop in May.    Again starting with raw fleece,  covering washing, drying and preparing for spinning.   Spinning using a drop spindle and an introduction to the  spinning wheel.
Dyeing using natural and synthetic dyes and food colouring as in the photos above.  The first one taken as the locks came out of the microwave and the second the same locks dried.     Food colouring is more user friendly in the average kitchen and so I am including using it in this workshop as they can be used without any special equipment
