  March 26th-Class 1: Assessing The Best Breed For Your Focus
  This class focuses on not simply buying the cheapest or most popular fleece or fiber, but learning how to determine the best fleece for your needs. You’ll learn Natalie Redding’s easy classification system that empowers you to know where you should put your time and money. Whether your end goal is reselling raw fiber, making batts or using the fibers in your own creations, you’ll be able to identify the appropriate breeds and condition of fleece for your end use. Don’t waste money on unnecessary purchases, buy smarter!
  March 27th-Class 2: Getting the Most Bang For your Buck
  This class focuses on how to assess a fleece (or tell if the seller is misleading you) in person at fiber festivals and farms or online when you only have a picture to judge by. Learn telling signs that show a fibers true usability as well as tips to determine if the fleece represented is of the actual breed advertised. By the end of “Getting the Most Bang for Your Buck,” you’ll be able to successfully buy fleeces and get what you expect.
  March 28th-Class 3: OOPSIE! Turning Garbage into Cash Salvaging Fiber and Fleeces
  We’ve all ruined fleeces or purchased fleeces which are poor quality. This class focuses on how to turn “not so nice” fibers into cash. The tips you learn will help you look at flops without cringing; there’s hope for any mistake you make and potential to make revenue off of “oopsies.” During this class, you’ll also learn about skirting, packaging and storing fleeces

  Natalie,
  Words cannot express my appreciation for all you have shared. When I signed up for the first Dye Secrets class, I had no idea what we would learn. Every Sunday was filled with excitement to learn not just about dyeing, but about fleece, business, critters... Your talents and abilities are endless. Joelle

  As usual Natalie has blazed new trails with her techniques, thoroughly researched, and packaged up the techniques so you, the student, can get to the heart of the “how to” quickly. Highly recommend.

  Natalie Redding is such a phenomenal teacher. She spends many hours researching and troubleshooting her classes. Then she is able to present the massive amounts of information on such a manner that makes it easy for us to understand. The yarn dyeing class is no exception. Natalies classes get better and better.
