Breed Study

This class takes a spinner on a comprehensive journey from choosing types of wool, through preparation, spinning, and finishing of yarn, resulting in the exact yarn the spinner dreamed of knitting or weaving with.
In this class we will start with an overview of wool breeds and their classifications.
We will learn how to wash wool to maintain the lock structure, wash lock by lock as well as washing in small batches.
In addition we will have an opportunity to try a variety of processing tools.
