In this class you will learn about the processing of wool into yarn. You will have the opportunity to learn about different fibers in their various stages of preparation to become yarn, including carding with hand carders and the drum carder. You will be able to touch the different breeds of sheep to feel the various qualities of the wool. At the end of 6 weeks you will be able to spin on the spinning wheel and ply a yarn that you can use to knit, crochet or weave.
