    Whether you're attracted to the natural colors of wool, the bright colors of dyed braids or just want to learn to make the yarn you've drooled over in the store, this is the class for you. Or perhaps you have sheep and want to learn how to use their wool, learning to spin your own yarn can be is a game changer. Imagine having the perfect yarn for every weaving or knitting project. Now, imagine having that option at a much more economical cost. Game changer! Suitable for both complete beginners and as well as those not-so-new who need a little more guidance, this class will cover the types and parts of a spinning wheel and which may be right for you. Other topics include tools, cost, drafting, plying, carding and finishing. Most of the time will be spent working on the wheels and learning to use fiber tools. Once everyone is comfortable at the wheel and practicing, I will work one-on-one with students. My goal is to send you home with a plied skein of yarn. Judi recommends that you  practice treadling a spinning wheel - both forward and backwards - prior to the class.

    Students should bring: Bring your own spinning wheel, if you have one. If you have clean fleece, or a braid you want to try spinning, you can bring that, too

     Materials Fee : 5 dollars: You'll receive a variety of animal fibers - wool, mohair, alpaca - in both natural and dyed colors. We can loan you a wheel for the class if you don't have one.

    Level: Beginner

    Explore the incredible diversity of North American waterfowl through needle-felting! This course is ideal for those both interested in learning about our native ducks, loons, grebes and other water-associated bird species, and learning beginner felting techniques. Students will work with the instructor to create small (no more than 2-3 in. long), three-dimensional bird sculptures. In addition, participants will receive bountiful unsolicited facts about our local birds from the instructor!

    Level: Beginning

    Member: $100

    Non-Member: $120

    Instructor: Daniel Baron

    Material Fee: $25

    Materials provided by teacher: Wool, felting needles and workpad.

    Students must bring: Felting pads and needles if they already have them. If so, materials fee is $15. If students are looking to get their own needles or work pads, both Local Cloth and Earth Guild have stock. I recommend getting at least one of each of the individually packaged needles from Earth Guild. The foam block at either Earth Guild or Local Cloth will be sufficient for learning but students could also purchase pads from online stores. The felted wool working pads are the best but are only sold online and are pricier.

Some tools and materials will be available to pull from at each session to help with your mending. Elizabeth Schell is co-owner of Purl's Yarn Emporium, and a life-long sewer, mender, maker and re-maker.

    You may notice two sections of this group--a morning sections on the first Monday of the month and an evening section on the second Tuesday of the month. You are welcome to come to either or both as fits with your schedule!

    The Textile Study Group is back by popular demand!

    The Textile Study Group met monthly for more than six years when Local Cloth was just getting started. It was a chance to get together and share the studies, rabbit holes, obsessions, curiosities, techniques, research,  and explorations by members with occasional guest presenters.

    This month, join Kimberly English at Local Cloth for "Tabby: A Starting Point."

    Local fiber artist, Kimberly English, will share about her approach to launching Tabby, an experimental weaving residency out of her studio in Canton, which will host its inaugural pilot season this spring + summer. Kimberly will also share about her current work, which synthesizes stories of myth (often informed by the American south), survival, and relationships that explore the nuance of interdependence - real and imagined - between land, machines, people, and the objects that we create. Through woven and quilted textile forms that emphasize and obfuscate found material, her work considers notions of labor, ritual, and perception.

    This full-day Introduction to Weaving class covers the basics of weaving through the process of creating handmade bookmarks on a small lap frame loom (which you can take anywhere!). During the class, we’ll cover how to load a shuttle, warp a loom, and some of the basic weaving techniques, including twining, tabby, twill and weaving in ends, which will help set you up for future weaving projects. We'll start by creating a fun color block bookmark (designed by you!) and follow it with a second bookmark using the elegant twill pattern. You’ll leave the class with two of your very own bookmarks! New to weaving? Don’t have a loom or weaving materials? No worries! This intro class is the perfect entry point to dip your toe. And, my Beginner’s Lap Loom Weaving Kit has everything you need to get started! Learn more in the Materials Section.

    Skill level: This is not a group for beginners to learn how to knit. All skill levels are welcome, but some basic knowledge of knitting is required.

    Learn the art of standing wool! Standing wool was popular before the Industrial Revolution as a thrifty way to use up extra scraps and create rugs for the home. However, this technique fell out of use during the advent of machine-made products because the slow, handmade process is impossible to recreate using automation or machinery. Standing wool rugs are also called quilled wool rugs or quillies.

    Katazome is a Japanese stencil dyeing technique. It is a rice flour resist paste. And it is a unique and fairly old process used to dye cloth. This dyeing technique utilizes natural materials – paper, rice paste and indigo. Katazome means ‘repeat dyeing”, referring to the use of a stencil to create a repetitive pattern. Traditional Katazome designs feature natural motifs, such as flowers and birds

    We will spend the first day learning how Katazome is made. And then we will create patterns onto fabric. You are encouraged to bring natural fiber clothing or cloth from home. Each person can bring up to 4 items. We should have plenty of materials. I will also provide white fabric from upcycled cotton sheets to practice on. 

    We will use stencils and kitchen spatulas to apply the kataxome paste onto the fabric. And then it needs to dry overnight. So we will resume the following day to dye our clothes/cloth. 

    Day 2, I will mix up an indigo vat which you all are encouraged to participate in. We will mix up a new vat so you can see the process. And I will have a ready-made vat too so we can jump right in. I will have disposable gloves available for some easy indigo dyeing. But if you would like to bring more sturdy gloves, there’s a better chance you won’t become blue. 

    By the end of day 2, you will be able to take home your items. We will wash and spin them enough to transport them home. But you will want to wash them again at home.

    If you have mastered a few simple book structures or you are an adventurous beginner join this class to learn two book structures that offer lots of modifications. The first structure is called the long stitch. It has an exposed stitching on the spine and can be made with fabric, leather or paper covers. You will learn how to turn fabric into book cloth so you have a sturdy cover for this book. The second structure has a spine made of an accordion fold so you can add many different items to your book which when opened up reveal a continuous display. We will learn both the flag book and the concertina. You can bring your own papers, fabrics, etc for the covers or choose from materials provided by the teacher.

    As a moving meditation, the process of weaving has a magical way of helping us to get out of our heads to simply “be,” and experience flow when working the loom. For me, weaving has helped me to see firsthand the connection between my mind and body and how one impacts the other. It has also helped me to slow down and enjoy the process just as much, if not more, than the piece of art that I create. The goal of this class is to share this magic with you! This Introduction to Weaving class covers the basics of how to weave using a lap loom (which you can take anywhere!) and incorporates elements of mindfulness. We’ll start with a weaving gratitude practice that will serve as the inspiration for our woven projects. Then, we’ll warp our looms and start weaving our designs, incorporating several basic weaving techniques, including twining, tabby, soumak, and rya. Finally, we’ll learn how to clean the backside of our weaving project and finish them off using a hanging rod. You’ll leave with a hanging tapestry (designed by you!) and a weaving gratitude practice that you can continue on your own after the class. Don’t have a loom or weaving materials? My Complete Weaving Kit has everything you need to get started!

    Students should bring: If you choose the kit with yarn, you only need to bring a sharp pair of scissors. If you already having weaving supplies or will purchase your own weaving supplies, please bring what is listed in the materials section (need similar size loom) as well as scissors, a strong cotton yarn for the warp and assorted yarn and roving for the rest of the weaving.

    Katazome is a Japanese stencil dyeing technique. It is a rice flour resist paste. And it is a unique and fairly old process used to dye cloth. This dyeing technique utilizes natural materials – paper, rice paste and indigo. Katazome means ‘repeat dyeing”, referring to the use of a stencil to create a repetitive pattern. Traditional Katazome designs feature natural motifs, such as flowers and birds

    We will spend the first day learning how Katazome is made. And then we will create patterns onto fabric. You are encouraged to bring natural fiber clothing or cloth from home. Each person can bring up to 4 items. We should have plenty of materials. I will also provide white fabric from upcycled cotton sheets to practice on. 

    We will use stencils and kitchen spatulas to apply the kataxome paste onto the fabric. And then it needs to dry overnight. So we will resume the following day to dye our clothes/cloth. 

    Day 2, I will mix up an indigo vat which you all are encouraged to participate in. We will mix up a new vat so you can see the process. And I will have a ready-made vat too so we can jump right in. I will have disposable gloves available for some easy indigo dyeing. But if you would like to bring more sturdy gloves, there’s a better chance you won’t become blue. 

    By the end of day 2, you will be able to take home your items. We will wash and spin them enough to transport them home. But you will want to wash them again at home. 

    MATERIALS FEE: 15 dollars for  the paste and indigo

    We are going big in this three-session Introduction to Circular Weaving workshop! We will create super huge Circular Weaving Tapestries — the size that is perfect for hanging above a sofa, bed, or to serve as the focal point on your wall. Using handmade 36” and 6” diameter circular looms, participants will learn how to craft an open center circular weaving. As a practice, circular weaving serves as a wonderfully meditative practice as you travel around the loom. This workshop will cover the basic techniques of weaving on a circular loom, including how to create yarn butterflies for weaving, how to warp a hoop loom with an open center, and circular weaving techniques, including tabby, rya, loops, and soumak, which you can use in all types of weaving projects. Participants will also get to design and bring to life their own creations using these techniques. You’ll leave the class with your very own (very large) circular weaving! Because the tapestry is extra large, we will accomplish the project in three sessions with additional work to be completed (if necessary) between Sessions #2 and #3. Curious about circular weaving or making something that is really big?! This intro class is perfect for beginners and individuals with some weaving experience.

    Level: Beginning 

    Instructor: Courtney LaCaria  bio 

    Price reflects the 20% Summer Series!

    Members: $240

    Students should bring: Scissors and Yarn (for weaving). Please note that this project uses quite a large amount of yarn, and is a great way to use up your yarn stash! During the first session, we will be spending the bulk of our time warping the loom, designing our tapestry, and discussing the types of yarn that can be used in various parts of our Circular Weaving Tapestries. The amount of yarn that you need for the full project will vary depending upon the weight and structure of the yarn. This means that you do not need to worry about settling on the types and/or colors of yarn for the project until Session #2, but you are welcome to bring yarn to the first session to help with the design process. You can also continue add to your yarn supply between Sessions #2 and 3 as you make your way through the project.

    Eco-printing is a contact printing technique. Leaves are placed over mordanted fiber and rolled tightly in a bundle. Next boiling or steaming the bundle transfers the tannins from within the leaves to the fiber.

    Beginner level.  First day: Instruction on pre treatment ,scouring and mordanting cellulose fiber. We will mordant rayon scarves to be used on the second day of class. Discussion on leaves regarding tannin and storage. Technique for testing how much tannin is in a particular botanical prior to use in eco-print bundle.  End the first day with eco-printing a test sample of leaves flowers that you are considering to use on cotton strip.

    Second day. First bundle demonstrates the technique of folding larger pieces in half that produce minimal center lines. Color dye carrier blankets will be used to transfer color over our leaf and fabric bundle. The second print will be on a rayon scarf 14”x 72. The dye we will be using is Procion fiber reactive dye. The carrier dye blankets are cotton fabric that has been washed several times. You can use old cotton sheets. I find that the dye blankets themselves are very beautiful and I end up saving them for other uses.  Example: Quilts, linings and art works. I like to use white off white or natural Kona cotton. There will be instruction on how to read your print results and adjust length of time in steamer.

    In this workshop, we will be delving deeper into the world of natural dyes with a more advanced look at other techniques of applying natural dyes to fabric and cloth. We will be using natural dyes such as Cochineal, Logwood and others in a more concentrated form to be applied either with a brush or with a stencil to form patterns on fabric. There is an overnight dry time for the dyes to dry. The next day, we will be stream-setting our dyes. Then we can either leave the backgrounds white or over-dye them for more color variety and impact. We will have practice pieces to work on which the instructor will provide. You can bring up to 4 fabric items - clothing, cloth, napkins, pillow cases, etc. as long as the items are made with 100% natural fiber such as cotton, linen, wool, silk, hemp, bamboo, etc (or a combination such as linen/cotton). It’s good to have a basic understanding and some experience with natural dyeing, as we will be reviewing and discussing mordants, modifiers and pH. There will be a detailed handout sheet with photos explaining this technique in detail along with recipes for further exploration.

We have hanks and cones of unused yarns, piles of unloved fabric, obscure tools that we forgot we had, looms that need a new home, duplicates of knitting needles, fleece that doesn’t seem to get spun. Now it can be yours!  We've cleaned out that closet and rented a space to sell our surplus fibers, materials and tools. Yard sale-type goods only! There will be no finished goods unless they are appropriate to use in other fiber techniques (i.e., hand-spun yarns, dyed yardage).

    The sale will be at the Conference Center at AB Tech again where there’s air conditioning and parking! There will be plenty of shopping to do. We can't wait to see you there!

    Color explosion! We are surrounded by color in every part of life. In this class you will learn what the color wheel is, how to mix each color, the relationship and of color to each other. Did you know that color has a temperature? Learn how to make a gray scale and measure the intensity to it. Create a monochromatic scale using a tint, tone and shade of each color. You will learn how to use neutrals to include warm or cool neutrals. This is just some of the exciting ways to learn about color. Come and explore so much more with me. This is an important learning step to creating beautiful fiber related works. Do you know how to tone down a vibrant color or what colors don’t mix well. If your colors become’ muddy’ learn how to avoid making those mixing mistakes. At the end of this class you will have a completed color wheel, gray scale, a set of monochromatic colors, analogous colors, as well as a set of neutrals and create a mood using color. Do you know the difference between a monotone and monochromatic colors? Come find out while having fun learning. You will pick the colors of your choice and we will paint a silk or cotton piece of fabric to add to your collection.

    One Stroke Decorative Painting

    The term “decorative painting” applies to any technique where a surface is painted to make it look more attractive. Decorative painting can be done on a specific surface (like tole painting), to achieve a specific look (like faux painting), or to achieve a result using a specific technique (like one stroke painting). In this surprisingly easy, four-week class, Camille Daunno will teach you how to paint flowers and foliage with realistic shading, highlighting, and blending using simple, one stroke painting techniques. In Week 1, you’ll learn how to “double load” a paint brush and create leaves, tendrils, and petals using the one stroke method. In Week 2, you’ll combine one stroke techniques to paint a simple flower. In Week 3, you’ll progress to painting more complex flowers, such as an iris, tulip, and cabbage rose. And, finally, in Week 4, you’ll put everything together to paint a full bouquet. You’ll leave the course with a beautiful piece of frameable wall art and the knowledge to apply your painting skills to pretty much any surface, including fabric (e.g., shoes, bags), metal (e.g., mailboxes, watering cans), wood (signs, boxes)

    Knitters! Crocheters! Needlefelters! Let's get together with your needles or hooks and make stuff. This is not a class- you should know something about your chosen craft but my suspicion is that you will learn something along the way. Knitters, needlefelters and crocheters are just like that. We do have some experienced folks in our group so you can count on getting some advice too.

     Materials supplied by students: Please bring whatever project/s you are working on, any FO's for show and tell as well as yarn acquisitions and new project ideas. 

    Materials supplied by organizer: We have a good selection of knitting magazines in our library for perusal, lots of yarn for sale in the shop and we have tea and coffee available. 

    Skill level: This is not a beginner's class. You should have some knowledge of your craft, but all skill levels are welcome!

    This is a free event for members but please sign up so we know how many to expect.

    Color explosion! We are surrounded by color in every part of life. In this class you will learn what the color wheel is, how to mix each color, the relationship and of color to each other. Did you know that color has a temperature? Learn how to make a gray scale and measure the intensity to it. Create a monochromatic scale using a tint, tone and shade of each color. You will learn how to use neutrals to include warm or cool neutrals. This is just some of the exciting ways to learn about color. Come and explore so much more with me. This is an important learning step to creating beautiful fiber related works. Do you know how to tone down a vibrant color or what colors don’t mix well. If your colors become’ muddy’ learn how to avoid making those mixing mistakes. At the end of this class you will have a completed color wheel, gray scale, a set of monochromatic colors, analogous colors, as well as a set of neutrals and create a mood using color. Do you know the difference between a monotone and monochromatic colors? Come find out while having fun learning. You will pick the colors of your choice and we will paint a silk or cotton piece of fabric to add to your collection. 

    This class will be hosted off-site at the home of the instructor. Directions to the home will be provided after registration.
