Colour! We all know that it can make or break a project, but how do we know which of the hundreds of hues out there are the ‘right’ ones?
Join Annika from Dragon Strings as she walks through colour theory from the very basics to more advanced projects with multiple shades and hues.
Why do some colours vibrate and others seem to fade together? The wonderful rainbow of colour will be explored, explained and expanded upon until you are comfortable making your own wonderful palette to use in all your crafts! This lecture and question/answer workshop is multi-craftual friendly, and you don’t need any prerequisites to come and get colourful.
Date and time: Saturday, November 22 from 10 - 12:30
Instructor: Annika P. from Dragon Strings
Prerequisite skills: None!
Materials: None! Although there will be colour wheels and pins available for optional purchase if you want to take your new found knowledge to the next level at home.
About Annika:
My dye studio is called Dragon Strings, and I’ve been putting dye to sting since 2015. I’m a passionate creator with a background in design, who is very strong in colour-theory. I was looking to get out of the corporate world and kind fell into dying after taking a class. I saw that I could use my background to create yarns that break the mold of ‘boring’ by dying one of a kind, funky, inspired yarns that are super awesome to work with and have colours that will knock your socks off! (Even if they are handmade)
I do just about everything that has to do with string, from fluff onwards. (I have not gotten any sheep or alpacas and/or learned to shear them....yet.) I have dabbled in knitting, crochet, spinning, weaving, macramé, knot work, and let’s not forget the dream catchers and friendship bracelets of my misspent youth. I’m mostly a knitter, with favourites being what- ever has caught my eye at the moment, but I do produce a staggering number of both hats and socks every year.
