Intro to Blending Boards - Roy Clemes - Fri. 8/8 (10am)

Friday, August 8
10:00am - 1:00pm (3 hours)

About the Class:

In 2011, Henry and Roy Clemes designed a new tool that eventually became the wildly popular Blending Board. In this class, you will learn basic techniques and use of a blending board from one of its designers. The class will not only demonstrate the versatility of the blending board - blending fibers of various types, lengths, and colors - but also the strength of the blending board - quickly preparing fiber in rolags for woolen spinning. All carding and blending will be done on Clemes & Clemes Blending Boards with each student using a board provided for them. All materials, boards, and tools will be provided by the instructors.

About the Instructor: We are a father and son duo with a Fleece Forward approach to the fiber arts. We believe that by working with quality fiber and equipment, our students can make efficient use of their time spent crafting, while creating garments that last a lifetime.

Homework: None

Required Materials:

• Included: The class fee includes a $35 materials fee for fiber provided
