Sheep to Shawl Event
Saturday, April 13th
All in a days work…
A Sheep-to-Shawl is an event where a group of fiber artists gather to create a shawl from a raw fleece all in one day. The group begins with a raw, sheared fleece. The wool will be picked, carded and then spun into yarn. The yarn is then passed to the weavers & knitters to be transformed into completed shawls.
The Sheep to Shawl event begins at 10:00 am - shawls will be completed by 5:00 pm
The shawls will be auctioned Sunday, April 14th at 3:00 pm
