I'm pleased to announce that I've just arranged to teach a class at WK Collegium on November 10:
The Ruff Job of the 16th Century Laundress
Overview, lecture, and demonstration of various arts and sciences of the late 16th Century laundress required to produce the iconic symbol of the era - the magnificent ruff! Thrill to tales of period methods for washing, starching, tinting, and setting of ruffs! Boggle at a setting demonstration! Fondle ruffs on hand! Giggle at woodcuts of monkeys! Be appalled as I read from Stubbes! Get your fingers sticky in starch (with and without dye)!
Something like that. So...see you there!
