Join instructor Patty Williams to create vibrant colors and patterns in your own mini skeins of yarn in a 2-hour workshop. Students will create several mini skeins as they develop skills to create color changing yarns as they knit or crochet, change the colors of fiber without blending, keep braids and batts from being muddled, and change commercial yarn colors all by the spinning process. This fast-paced class is perfect for spinners who hate weaving in ends on multi colored projects (or do not dye), struggle with braids, or are gifted that skein they just don’t know how to use. All spinning materials will be provided in class.

Students should bring a working wheel or drop spindles to class. Students should know how to spin and ply.
