UPDATE: SOLD OUT
You know Merino yarn, now try other breeds of wool! Join us for a yarn tasting workshop and experience new fibers!
This workshop includes guided discussions on wool characteristics, different categories of sheep breeds (fine wool, medium wool, down, long wool, primitive/non-industrial). The yarn tasting pack includes samples of five breed specific wools for each student to knit and crochet, and additional breed specific fibers and wool to examine in the class.
We will discuss the history of select sheep breeds, resources for learning more, and what types of wool are typically suited for what purposes. You'll work out with hands-on experience with different breed specific yarn, and lots of ideas of how to incorporate it into your making going forward.
