Wool Workshop: From Sheep to Scarf

Join us as we celebrate the craftsmanship of Kenyan wool artistry!

Discover the journey of our Rift Valley Wool from “Sheep to Scarf” as we walk you through the traditional techniques of natural fiber processing. Enjoy live demonstrations of washing, carding, and preparing raw fleece, followed by an engaging spinning demo showcasing the delicate art of twisting wool into fine threads, ready for your creative projects. Learn about the organic types of dyes used in the process, and watch as we prepare small batches of plant-based dyes.

Experience trying different stages of the wool processing journey yourself! Plus, take part in a fun finger-knitting class where you’ll create a skinny scarf to take home.

We’re excited to share this meaningful handmade process with you and give you a deeper appreciation for the many steps involved in creating high-quality wool yarn.
