Twining a Pouch with Plant Dyed Yarn
About Twining a Pouch with Plant Dyed Yarn with Katie Grove
In this workshop you will learn how to make a twined yarn pouch using a variety of plant dyed yarns. Twining is an ancient technique and has been used all over the world to create vessels of all shapes and sizes with many different materials. In this class we will use plant dyed wool yarn to create a pouch in the size of your choice, from a necklace size to a larger 3" x 4" bag.
We will cover both closed and open weave twining, stripes, patterns, and the addition of beads. Each person's project will turn out uniquely depending on your own creative choices of color and pattern. Join in to learn a fun and versatile new technique that is perfect for leftover yarn!
