Sheep to Shawl Demonstration at Blackstock Fair

Eight members of our guild took part in a Sheep to Shawl demonstration at the Blackstock Fair on August 26. We had a lovely raw fleece from Thistledew Farm which we flick carded and combed and then spun to our weavers specification. The spun yarn was then passed to the weaver. A warp of singles in shades of green, blue and purple was already on the loom ready for weaving. We were well received at the fair and many asked questions and were very interested in the process.
