How To Train Your Fiber II
speed washing bulk dyeing production

 
raw unwashed alpaca fleece
 

*~* NEW CLASS!! *~*

Time is money. When fleeces are building up in the barn and time is of the essence, this technique will allow you to speed wash and dye an entire alpaca fleece at once in 12 different colors using a bucket, one roaster and a case of mason jars.

This is a 3.5 hour hands on workshop, with a generous break during class to allow fiber to process.

This workshop is not for beginners. It most beneficial for those who have attended the How To Train Your Fiber workshop, or for those who are already confident/comfortable handling, processing and dyeing alpaca fiber.

 

Materials:
All class materials are provided, but you may like to bring a notebook and a pen.



Tips:
- Wear comfortable shoes, and clothing you don't mind getting dirty
- A camera is always handy, and besides, you may want to share your creations with your Facebook friends during class
- Bring business cards to share - after all, we need to create a support network!

At the conclusion of the class you'll be able to purchase materials to take home including power scour; dyed and undyed blending fibers such as wool, milk, bamboo, and rose fiber; sparkle and embellishings; and drum carders. Cash, checks and credit cards are accepted.

Drum carders are shipped via UPS ground directly from the Strauch warehouse and usually arrive within 2-3 days. All carder purchases include tools, clamps, shipping, and $50* worth of product of your choice that you can take home right away so that you're ready to start when your carder arrives.
