January 27:  Blending Boards with Roy Clemes 

This is an in-person & Zoom meeting, weather permitting. Roy will be joining us via Zoom. 

Doors open at 6:15 PM, meeting starts at 6:45 PM

Learn how to use a Blending Board from one of its original designers! In 2011, Roy and his father Henry, Clemes & Clemes in Pinole, created a new tool that became the wildly popular Blending Board. This demonstration will show the versatility of the blending board - blending fibers of various types, lengths, and colors - but also the strength of the blending board - quickly preparing fiber as rolags for woolen spinning.  Wool, mohair, alpaca, cotton, feathers, dog hair, shredded silk fabric, cut yarn, odds and ends from other projects – your imagination is the only limiting factor. 

Guests are welcome to attend one meeting free of charge prior to joining the guild. 

The Zoom link will be sent to members that register for the event, or you can find it in the Members Only section under Zoom Links.
