Carding 101- how to get the best out of your fibre at home

Carding with natural fibre is both an art and a technique. Each fibre behaves differently when going through the machine. 

In this workshop 2 hour, you will work with various types of fibres, starting with best practices of preparing the raw fibre - washing, skirting, and picking - in preparation for carding. You will learn various techniques for using the carder, explore different tools, and learn the differences between preparing fibre at home and for a small-scale mill, and discover how to card without a carder.

All fibre you prepare is taken home for your own use. If you have some, bring your own fibre too.

Each workshop is priced per person. Once purchased, you will be contacted to arrange a suitable date for the workshop. If you have a group of 5+ people, please contact us.
