Autumn 2013: Color
Delve into autumn with cozy tones and different ways to spin, card, draft, dye, and design with them. Investigate a myriad of techniques to spin color, including several ways of keeping color intact and what to do when you don’t want to keep it intact but rather want to blend, extend, or tone it up or tone it down. Learn how to card for different color effects and how to design a color palette. Do you ever spin down the side of combed top, ending with a messy mass of fiber in your supply hand? Learn to spin back and forth across a wider piece of fiber instead of having to strip it thinner. Read the differing opinions of 3 spinning professionals in our new regular feature: Hot Button. Study the colorful and versatile Jacob sheep, learn when color first shows up in the history of spinning, and join Yvonne Stowell, Stephen West, Adrian Bizilia, and Carol Feller for fun projects featuring color!
