Spoon carving workshop Plymouth CRAFT Aug 11 & 12

Greenwood Fest is now a month behind us, and Plymouth CRAFT is jumping right back into gear. Paula Marcoux just posted notice for a spoon carving workshop coming up in August.

 

You – stump #3, it’s best to keep your eyes on your work!

It’s a mostly new venue for us, The Wildlands Trust building in Plymouth, not far from where we have held Greenwood Fest. We hosted a lecture/demo there last year by Kiko Denzer, but now we’re going to make some chips fly. Come make some spoons, we’ll have a good pile of freshly cut green wood, lots of examples to study, tools to try and more.

The usual two-day format, featuring the Plymouth CRAFT crowd, Paula will run it, and make lunch, Pret Woodburn & I will guide you through the steps of spoon carving. Others will be around. Hope you can make it – Sat/Sun August 11-12, here’s the website:  https://www.plymouthcraft.org/spoon-carving

 

We’ll have some Morakniv 106 knives for sale there, as well as Barn’s book Spoon. Jögge Sundqvist’s book Slöjd in Wood and more.

 

I have a few spoons left for sale from last week, for those inclined. https://pfollansbee.wordpress.com/2018/07/01/spoons-and-furniture-for-sale-july-2018/
