Open House - Demonstrations & Hands-On Activities with Wool and Silk

Past event
Feb 14, 2015, 1 to 4 PM

Have you ever knitted directly from a silk cocoon? Wondered how yarn was spun (and still is in many parts of the world) before the spinny jenny was invented? Curious about how silk is harvested from the cocoon or why some sweaters pill and others don't? Stop on by the Northeast Fiber Arts Center this Saturday to learn all about fibers. We'll do some demonstrations and you can try your hand at spinning yarn on a drop spindle, needle felting and knitting directly from a silk cocoon.
