Learn how to make beautiful rolags, batts, and include special effects
like gradients into your yarn spinning, using one simple tool: a blending board.
Blending boards are a portable, modern addition to the handspinner's toolkit. Use your blending board to create beautiful rolags inspired by famous works of art, photographs you've taken, or your imagination. Easily incorporate mohair curls, silk, or sparkles; blend colors, make a gradient, or "paint" a wool picture that can be wet felted or spun into art yarn.
We will assemble our blending board kits using everyday objects and high quality blending cloth. We will use our blending boards to make several wool preparations based on magazine imagery and then spend some time spinning the results. You'll go home with your own DIY blending board, accessories and wool preparations to spin later.
