We are hosting our annual Flax to Linen workshop at the end of the month. Join master spinner, Holin Kennen and myself for two days of flax fun. Saturday will start with a discussion of growing and preparing flax plants, followed by hands-on processing of flax into fiber. In the afternoon, we will dress distaffs in anticipation of Sunday, when we will spend the day spinning our hard-won fiber into linen thread suitable for weaving.
Prior wool or other fiber spinning and a spinning wheel are prerequisites for this workshop. Please contact me with questions about your ability and/or if you are in the market for a wheel.
