About The Event
Join us for Session 1 of a 3-part Timeless Trades class: Fiberways 101, taught by the wonderful fiberistas of the FiberGuild and Harmony Weavers Guild. Working with wool has a long and important history, and modernly is quite cathartic and a useful skill.

- Washing wool
- Different kinds of fiber
- A taste of spinning
We hope you can attend the other two sessions as well. It is not a requirement to attend all three, but it is highly recommended:
Session 2 (February 13th): Picking, carding, combing wool, a bit more spinning
Session 3 (February 20th): Spinning with a drop spindle, great wheel, treadle wheel
