It is that time of year that Christine has her wool washed and ready to weave!
Soft and cushy. Come and learn from Christine Skaling to weave on a loom you have made from nature wool from Christine's sheep This is a lengthy class and will require some building but there will help along the way. We will be building the looms in the morning and weaving the pads into the afternoon. If you don't have the power tools, no worries we do. If the weather is good, we will be out back so dress for it. If it's wet, we will be inside. There is also a cost of $20 to cover the wool and base of the loom.

You will need to bring with you:
2 wooden dowels 7/16" and 4' long
String or yarn if you have particular kind but Christine will have string for us
If you have a drill with 7/16 bit same as your dowel and a bit the next size down
Christine will supply the base of the loom
If this is your first time attending a barter-based class, note that attendees are encouraged to bring an item(s) to offer in exchange for the knowledge shared in addition to any supplies required for the class.
Preferred trade items: anything homemade, dark chocolate, homemade soap, candles or wool yarn. Also any old t shirts you may not want anymore.
There is no fee associated with this ticket available on Eventbrite but please do not just indicate "coming" on the event - we've found this is not an accurate capture of attendees.
Again, if you feel sick, please stay home and keep everyone safe :)
Hope to see you soon!
