Have you ever wondered why a fiber behaves the way it does? Want to know which fibers and yarns can be mixed without problems? What are the “new age” fibers and how can they be used? We will discuss the new fibers on the market and how they fit into the world of textiles. You will learn about fiber variations and characteristics that affect spinning, weaving, wearability, and fiber care. You will learn to identify fibers using the microscope and other methods.
