Novelty Yarns Series: Boucle

Come and learn more about novelty yarn technique with Heather.  Boucle means "to curl or buckle," and this yarn does this by way of it's irregular structure.  It is the means by which yarn gets loops and bumps.  (Your big opportunity to come to the yarn shop, get loopy and no one will have to call a cab for you to get home!)
Bring your basic spinning skills and a wheel and have fun!  Heather will provide materials (clean mohair and wensleydale locks and binder thread) to spin, included in fee. If you really want to use your own, fee drops $10.
Wednesday, Feb. 9, 4PM to 6PM.  $30.  Heather Seevers.

Novelty Yarn Series: Spinning Thick and Thin

This class is a great opportunity for the spinner to explore (or revisit?) irregular yarn.  That lovely chunky stuff you look wistfully at a new spinner turning out?  Heather will guide you through making it with control and show you how it is the technique at the root of noils, wraps and all sorts of fun novelty yarns!
You will need to bring your basic spinning skills, a wheel and some prepared roving.  If you need supplies, you'll get a 10% discount as a student.  If you need to arrange to use a shop wheel for the class, let us know when you sign up.  Don't forget your sense of humor!
Saturday, Feb.5th.  11AM to 1 PM.  $20.  Heather Seevers, teacher extraordinaire.
