Cellulose Fibers - Old & New, Long & Short3 day The end of the twentieth century saw an explosion in the cellulose fibers available for hand spinners to incorporate into their stash, naturally colored cottons, various flax preparations, hemp, ramie, rayons, TencelTM and the newest Rayon from Bamboo. Each of these has similar characteristics, but vastly different spinning and preparation techniques since the fibers vary from ½ inch cotton to more than a meter for hemp. Spend 3 days learning how to explore, combine and maximize these fibers with your spinning skills. Various preparations, dyeing, spinning, plying finishing and record keeping techniques will be covered. The "Cellulose" booklet is included in the fiber fees. |
