The Answer is in the Cards: Fiber Preparation for Hand Spinners with Q and Katy from Yarn Adventure Truck

This class will help you learn to card your fiber in preparation for spinning, as well as how to utilize these beautiful carded preparations. What is an art batt? How might you make one? What can you do with it, and why would you want to? How does a dog comb come into the fiber-prep picture? And what in the world is a rolag? Come card with Q and Katy, and learn answers to those questions–and more. Yes, we ARE batty for batts–and we think you will be as well!
