SPINNING 101: GETTING TO KNOW YOUR WHEEL

Have you ever wanted to learn how to spin your own yarn? It’s fun, it’s relaxing and I can show you how to do it! In this beginner class, you’ll learn about wheels, spinning methods, best fiber for beginner spinners and basic wheel maintenance. In the morning we’ll start with getting to know your wheel and how it works. After lunch, we’ll move on to spinning singles and then plying. At the completion of class, you will have a basic understanding of your wheel and the skills to start spinning on your own. There is no experience needed, and I will provide the fiber, tools and a resource guide to start you on your journey. Bring yourself, your wheel with at least three empty bobbins and a lazy Kate. Wheel must be in good working condition and ready to use. Additional supplies may be available at end of class.
