Introduction to Spinning Workshop

Spinning fibres goes back to the beginning of humanity. It still holds a fascination for many to see the seemingly magical transformation from a cloud of fibre being turned into a piece of useful yarn. 

In this 2 hour workshop, you will be introduced to the basics of spinning by first preparing roving, wool batt, and wool cloud. Beginning on the drop spindle, over the workshop you'll move at a pace you feel comfortable with. Once you feel good about how to spin on the spindle, you can have a go on a spinning wheel if desired. 

All materials are included, and you will go home with some of your hand-spun yarn.

 Drop spindles, spinning wheels, and roving will be available for purchase after the workshop.

Minimum 2 people, maximum 6 per workshop

 Suitable for all levels with all necessary materials included.
