Let's Get Fractal!
About Let's Get Fractal!
Tired of your usual and predictable barber pole skeins? In this class, we will look at hand-dyed fiber braids differently. Create spectacular skeins by learning to control the color repeats in your fiber through fractal spinning. We will prepare and spin samples to find our new favorites.
The capacity for this class is 15 students.
