March 2, 2013: COLOR!
Day-long “mini-retreat” with instruction available in natural dyeing, weaving, spinning and probably anything else you want to ask about! Bring your fiber, handspun, yarn or fabric to dye and any unfinished projects you need assistance with.
For the first time, our Frolic has a theme: COLOR! With a focus on dyeing, we’ll also offer classes in color theory, blending fibers, choosing colors for weaving or knitting projects, and techniques for working with space dyed or variegated yarns.
Children old enough to participate in fiber arts are welcome. Parents are solely responsible for their children.

My step daughter is a spinner and does some dying. She lives in Alaska and will be in for a visit 3/29-4/1.
I am trying to find a class? access to dyes? or a mini personalized lecture where should could “play and learn”
I an willing to foot the bill to give her this fun time. I was thinking dust dying or earth dyes whatever. I know you don’t have a store. Any suggestions?
Beverly, we’ll be contacting you via email or telephone! What a sweet idea for your step daughter. If no one is available for a workshop, our one dye kits have all the materials and instructions she’ll need to try some natural dyes. They’re available in our online store.
