You’ll learn the distinct characteristics of mineral and lake pigments, and how to incorporate them into your creative practice.
Each participant will make their own pan watercolors and take home a set of handmade samples. Shells for making watercolor pans will be provided, but students are welcome to bring their own containers or shells if they prefer their own.

About the Event
Join us at the beautiful Fibershed Learning Center with expert knitter, Gayle Ravenscroft of Pacific Knitting Retreats, for a class on working with ‘farm yarns.’
‘Farm yarns’ are yarns that are produced locally by our Fibershed shepherds on their ranches. These yarns offer unique characteristics that are tied to their origins and cannot be replicated in mass production.
Some of the topics Gayle will discuss are:

Why knitters should consider ‘farm yarns,’ and in particular, yarns from their local Fibershed
How to find farm yarns
Projects that are particularly suitable for farm yarns and why
Wool breed specificity (including heritage breeds) and how using different ones can add a special dimension to your craft.

Students will have ‘hands-on-needles’ knitting time with a variety of these yarns in person. The workshop will last two hours from 10am-12pm, followed by a guided walk of the dye garden and a catered picnic lunch supplied by the instructor.
Note! – There will be a separate afternoon field trip from 1-4pm that is connected to this workshop. To get a sneak peek into the local wool ranch, Alpacas of Marin, sign up at the link here : Sign up for the afternoon Ranch Visit ***
***This portion of the event is hosted by the instructor, and is NOT hosted through Fibershed. For all inquiries about the wool ranch visit, please contact the instructor via the ‘ranch visit’ link above.
Participants must bring:

Knitting needles (We will be working with yarns ranging in weight from Sport to Worsted in various styles, so select sizes accordingly. Gauge is irrelevant so whatever you would facilitate freedom to experiment with is appropriate.)
Other knitting tools, if you have them
The instructor will be supplying a catered lunch, details to confirmed after registration for lunch choice options. Coffee and tea will be provided on site.
Please bring any of your own additional personal snacks, lunch, and beverages.
A notebook and pen for note taking is encouraged.

About the Event
Over this intensive two-day introductory course, students will be introduced to the history, tools, materials, and basic technique of professional hat making, and craft their own felt hat using the techniques learned in class.
We will start with a brief look into the history of the hat industry, unpack some of the exploits the industry has benefited from, and look at how this industry has shaped the western world that provides context for where we are today.
TOOLS
Much of hatmaking comes down to the rare and specialized tools that we use. Most people have very little knowledge of all the equipment required for fine hat making, let alone the names and terminology for all of it.
Students will be introduced to a wide selection of tools, from your basic set of hatmaking tools, many of which are antiques dating back over 100 years, to contemporary tools hand-designed and fabricated by the instructor.
Select hat-making tools students will learn about include:

Hat Blocks
Brim Flanges
Tolakers
Pull Downs and Push Downs
Irons
Shackles
Steam Boilers
Band Blocks
Stretchers
Pouncing Sponges

Participants should bring:

*Attendees must wear closed-toe shoes*

Join us at the intersection of environmental responsibility and artistic expression.
What’s included:
✴ Personal dye station with ingredients for a one-gallon sea urchin dye bath
✴ One wool beanie (Fibershed Climate Beneficial™ Verified premium Merino wool sourced locally from California)
✴ One urchin shell (also known as a test)

2025-12-18 15:00 - 19:00 | North Berkeley Farmer’s Market, Shattuck Avenue @ Vine Street, Berkeley, Ca., Berkeley, United States
About the Event
This December, the Berkeley Farmers’ Markets are getting into the holiday spirit with a special winter event. On December 13, 16, 18, and 20, the markets will bring fresh local food and incredible California grown and produced gifts made by our partners at Fibershed, a nonprofit that’s reshaping how textiles are grown, processed, designed, sewn, and worn.
Shop food for your holiday table and gifts for loved ones in the same visit. Start with fresh produce, seasonal fruits and vegetables, breads, cheeses, meats, and sweet treats. Then explore our Fibershed pop up vendors featuring clothing, body care products, yarn, and more, making for unique gifts that support California agriculture in a whole new way.
Every purchase helps Bay Area farmers and local artisans thrive while keeping holiday spending close to home. Celebrate with us and enjoy food, gifts, and community in one joyful marketplace.
