The February 2, 2019, Santa Barbara Fiber Arts Guild Program is a presentation by Shari McKelvy of Morro Fleece Works, in Morro Bay, on the “Sheep to Shawl” Process. This program will be of interest to weavers, spinners and knitters in the guild. “Sheep to Shawl” includes the processing of wool from the shearing of a sheep to the weaving of a shawl. This includes, the shearing of a sheep, cleaning and processing of the wool, the spinning of the fiber and to the weaving of the garment. Shari will also include a discussion on some of the details involved in the running of the mill and what products and services that they provide to other companies or the individual consumer.

We will be meeting at the Clubhouse at Maravilla Senior Living in Goleta.
