Join Blackwattle and spinner extraordinaire, Deborah Everson White, on their alpaca farm in Murrumbateman for this fascinating and informative fibre-spinning workshop.

The seven-hour Create at Blackwattle session is designed to help yarnies develop the knowledge, technical skills and confidence you need to spin fibre into your own, totally unique yarn!

In a very hands-on and practical workshop, you will use your newly mastered techniques to make your very own skein of hand-spun yarn for knitting, crocheting or weaving into something fabulous!

The session also includes morning tea, coffee and an opportunity to join us after the session for a complimentary alpaca hand-feeding experience (weather permitting).

To participate in this workshop you will need a functioning spinning wheel. If you are bringing a wheel with you, please ensure it has been serviced and is in full working condition.

If you would like to participate in the workshop but do not have a spinning wheel at your disposal, they will have a maximum of four wheels available to rent for the workshop.
