Fractals are never ending patterns found in nature, mathematics, and art. They repeat themselves at different scales or sizes. Fractal yarns are usually created from dyed combed top. However, what if you have separate sources of fiber (i.e, samples from workshops, leftover fiber from other projects, etc.)? In this workshop, we will explore how to create a fractal yarn from a variety of fiber sources.

• Skill Level: Advanced Beginner – Can spin a single and ply. Students should be able to spin a stable, continuous yarn.

• Supplies Students Must Bring: Note taking supplies. Hand cards, a spinning wheel in good working order with a minimum of four bobbins.

• Materials fee: $20 - Participants will receive fiber and handouts.

• Instructor Will Provide: Instructor will have a few pieces of equipment (i.e., niddy noddies, nostepinnes) for participants to use during the workshop.

• Homework: None
