SUMMARY:Introduction to Spinning
DESCRIPTION:Learn to spin yarn on a drop spindle. Find out why hand spun yarn is so special and learn how to make your own yarn! Within three weeks you will be spinning and plying your own yarn on an ancient\, yet portable form of spinning tool – the drop spindle. You will learn to make yarn suitable for knitting\, crochet\, weaving\, or any fibre craft. \nThree 1.5-hour classes \nSkills Learned:\n\nDrafting\nPlying\nFinishing your yarn\nFibres and their properties\n\nMaterials: \n\nTop whorl spindle (70mm 1.25 oz or 1 oz is recommended)\nClean wool spinning fibre. Bluefaced Leicester (BFL) or Corriedale top are recommended. Other medium-fine fibers (ex. Polwarth\, Romney) would be OK. Merino is finer and has a shorter staple\, so it is not recommended for starting.\n\nOptional Materials:\nRespect the Spindle or Start Spinning
