Fall Skirting Team

Want to learn how to process a raw fleece, skirt off the dirty bits, and help with our 2024 edition of Blue Ridge Blankets? Then this is the group for you! The Local Cloth skirting team members help build a market for local wool, alpaca and mohair by preparing fleece to go to the mill and be spun into yarn. Farmers, artists and curious people are all welcome. If there's interest we'll also teach you how to wash and dye fleece, and take a farm tour!

We skirt both inside the studio and outside on the loading dock depending on the weather. Bring an apron or use one of ours and dress casually. No experience needed.

**This event will be held outside on the covered patio. Please dress weather appropriate.**
