Description

Want to learn about different breeds of sheep and how their wool looks, feels and performs differently? The best way is by experiencing them first hand: touch, knit, test and share. During this two-hour workshop, students will experience two distinct wool yarns. This class is designed to give knitters at all levels a way to approach a new-to-you breed of sheep. If you have these breeds or similar types, you can use your stash or we can provide you with the yarns. You'll receive digital hand-outs during the class.
