Learn to Handpaint Yarn

Saturday, July 26th. Learn to handprint or dye Superwash Wool Yarn with Yvonne Ellsworth. She will cover 2-3 different dyeing techniques, including variegated stripes, tonal building of colors, and speckles. Included with the class are 2 skeins of sustainable, American grown Shaniko Superwash Wool. You are welcome to bring additional wool yarn or spinning fiber. Yvonne will also have additional yarn available fur purchase. If you are interested in dyeing sweater quantity of yarn during the class, please makes sure to contact us to make sure enough supplies are on hand.

Please note: Dye may get on skin or clothes, so wear clothing that is safe to get dye on. Gloves will be provded, but dye might still get on hands, which washes off after about a day. Also, there will be some downtime during the workshop while dyes set, so bring a project to keep your hands busy!
