SUMMARY:Long Draw & Chain Ply
DESCRIPTION:In this intermediate 2.5-hour class\, we’ll explore two game-changing techniques that will open up new creative possibilities in your handspun yarn: long draw and chain plying! \nWe’ll start with long draw spinning\, a technique that creates soft\, lofty singles compared to the relatively more smooth and dense singles that are achieved with the short-forward method of spinning. You’ll learn to let the fiber flow freely and find that the singles will practically spin themselves!

SUMMARY:Swiss Darning
DESCRIPTION:We will start by reviewing duplicate stitch to use as reinforcement on knitwear. Then we’ll apply what we learned with duplicate stitch to Swiss Darning to fill holes in knitted fabrics. \nSwiss darning is typically used as the least visible technique to repair knits\, if that’s your goal. It can also be used\, along with duplicate stitch\, for fun visible repairs. Both of these techniques are specific to knitwear fabrics and\, unlike traditional darning\, will maintain the natural stretch of the knit. \nYou can bring along your own knitwear to repair if you’d like or a knitwear sample can be provided. \nRachel Weigelt is the owner and operator of Frayed Threads Mending in northeast Seattle\, where she offers textile mending and tailoring services. She will walk you through the steps to repair your knitwear with these three darning techniques.
