bring your own nalbinding needle if you have a favorite.

with a beautiful yet functional writing tool. I will teach the
basics of cutting a primitive writing implement from both softwood
and feather. Class includes free reed materials and handout, a $5
charge for goose or turkey feather. Demonstration of proper use of
tools, tempering feather to cut quill and ink bar to try your hand.

students, one demo table with outlet near for electric burner. I
will have protected table covers and one heat cover for demo table.

Beginning Knitting and Knitting in
the round

 

HL Elen m’Maredudd

 

This is a beginning knitting class
for two separate levels of knitter.

 

If you have never knitted, or have
forgotten what you did, this is beginning knitting. You will learn
to cast on, knit, purl, increase and decrease, and cast
off.

 

Students should bring: knitting
needles: size 7 or 8 or 9 or 10, preferably wood or plastic and a
skein of medium weight, smooth, not black yarn. Red Heart is
suggested.

Knitting in the round:

 

Using five double pointed needles,
knitting continuously to form a tubular piece. This is the
technique used for socks and hats. You will need yarn as above, and
a set of needles size 6 or up to size 10. This will cover casting
on and joining, ribbing, distributing stitches, increasing and
decreasing evenly, and binding off or knitting off. I will have
directions for a simple scarf and a basic hat for you, as well as
some reminder notes to take home.

 

Students should bring: yarn as
above, plus a set (5) double pointed needles size 6, 7, 8, 9, or
10.

 

Medieval Cookery–Getting
Started.

 

Elisabeth de Rossignol,
OL

Class time–2 hours.

This will be an introduction to
extant cooking manuscripts from various times and places, and how
to create a workable recipe using them. We will cover period
cooking practices (how big is a gobbet?), common ingredients and
materials (what is powder douce anyway?), and the impact of new
foods from the New World (you might be surprised.)

 

There will be a practicum with
hands-on experience in making a medieval dish from an original
recipe.

 

A handout will be provided, with
bibliography and where to find things like grains of
paradise.
