Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this dye class:

Textile / Surface Design: Dyeing Skills: Yarn or Warps/ Hand Painting for Knitting, Crocheting, Weaving, etc

In love with color and have a fondness for those expensive, luxury yarns? Knitting, weaving, crochet, embroidery and quilting all come to life with hand painted threads. Sliver put-up for spinning and fiber fusion also doable during these sessions. Perfect class regardless of your fiber addiction. Recycle yarn and/ or create your own hand painted works . Tammy covers the basics of working with fiber-reactive dyes and provide the "recipe" at the beginning of the session. Need help with color? She's on hand to help.

We supply work space and the dye. Bring your yarn, floss, fibers or sewing thread in skein form, pre-measured warps or even loose knit fabrics for unraveling. Total weight per session is 16oz. Fiber content should be bamboo, cotton, hemp, linen, Tencel, rayon or silk (blends of these, okay too but, please, no acrylic, polyester, nylon, though). (*Yarn and fibers may be purchased in advance from TLD!) Choke ties should be looser so they don't act as a resist when the yarn is wet and swollen. Please feel free to ask Tammy about your prep prior to class.

Students should wear old clothes to class and bring 1 sheet of clear or white plastic large enough to wrap each yarn put-up, a plastic tub to carry your wet plastic wrapped yarn and rubber gloves.

DON'T WANT TO DYE AT HOME? REPEATERS WELCOME

Various skeins of different fiber content, size and textures yarns are available for purchase in our Design Center.
