Grab your drop spindle or spinning wheel and come spend a Sunday morning spinning wool!
Spin with Ewe is held the first Sunday of each month at Nash Lake Fiber Farm, hosted by Theresa (Get Bentz Farm) and Amy (Nash Lake Fiber Farm). At each event, they’ll provide fiber for spinners to play with and a specific theme of focus, as well as education regarding the theme and technique tips for spinning and finished garments. Materials are sourced locally as much as possible, knowing sometimes we can't get it here. Information and fun stories about the adventures we had finding the fiber are also provided.
August- Spin your sock
Fall is on the way which means we will need to trade our sandals for some warm woolen socks. This class will include a variety of blends and wools that make the perfect, long-lasting, farm girl socks. We will talk about different breeds that were chosen as well as why some fibers were added. We will also discuss ply, twist per inch, and how to make those hand spun socks last and last.
