Foothill Fibers Guild is hosting a spinning workshop with Abby Franquemont. It’ll be in Nevada City, January 27-29, 2012.
Workshop Description: Whether you have only been spinning a short time or 20 years, you will have fun, learn lots, and come away with customized yarns that YOU want. Learn how to calculate how much fiber you need, what fibers work best for what YOU want to do, and to draft, spin, and ply for your particular intended project. Want to learn about blends, self-stripping yarns and fibers, and spinning from the fold? Whether it’s fast and skinny, or consistently big yarns, or by wheel or spindle, Abby will customize this workshop so that each participant learns what they need to know to produce the yarn they desire. Abby will contact each participant prior to the workshop in order to customize the experience.
