This is color play for fiber artists! In this class, students will learn how our eyes interpret color and use this knowledge to blend primaries. By sharing their blended colors, each student will create a fiber color wheel to take home, as well as card a gradient batt of complementary colors. This class takes the theory of color blending and applies it to drum carding as never before! All carding and blending will be done on our Elite Series Drum Carders with each student using their own electric carder. All materials, wooden fiber wheel, carders, and tools will be provided by the instructors.
