Sublette BOCES

Learn the basics of fiber preparation and spinning fiber. 1st learn to spin using a drop spindle ( you will be able to take this home to practice between classes). 2nd students will be able to work with five different spinning wheels, including e-spinners, during the workshop. Finally, students will learn to use and have access to blending tools to make their own unique fiber blends. Wheels will be provided, however, if students wish to bring their own (working) spinning wheels to class please let BOCES know. Various tools will be available for students to use for their projects. Please pack a sack lunch. Allergy alert - this workshop will be using animal fibers, primarily wool.
