A PRACTICAL PERSPECTIVE TO ADD VALUE TO YOUR FIBRE   

TOFT ALPACA FIBRE WORKSHOP February 18th 2012

Add value to your alpaca aspiration!

We will be running  a  one day Alpaca fibre course on February 18th 2012. The theme will be 'Field to Fashion 'which will deliver a practical perspective on all aspects of alpaca fleece and fibre from the field to the catwalk

Rob will be running these alpaca fleece and fibre days. Rob  was one of the first qualified alpaca judges in the UK and has years of showing experience both in the UK and Europe  to underpin his work.

He approaches fibre as a breeder with over 15 years experience with a practical perspective. He has over the past five years been heavily involved in the development of the Toft Alpaca Shop which has been sorting large quantities of alpaca fibre per annum for processing into high quality knitwear yarns and knitwear.

These Alpaca Fibre workshops are designed to throw some real  practical insight into all the challenges of breeding, shearing, sorting, showing, analyzing and processing this elite fibre.

This one day course will give each participant a firm grounding in alpaca fibre and touch practically on every aspect of growing and working with alpaca fibre, destroying a few myths and adding some inspiration along the way, hopefully leaving the participants with a firm grounding in the realities of how to add value to their herd.

£100 pp inc VAT ( Lunch and Refreshments included.) 10am -4pm
