Participants will receive a brief introduction to the process of spinning their own yarn from natural fibres. We will talk about and explore the fibres and tools available, and the general process of spinning fibre into yarn. Then we will get hands on - learning the two building blocks of spinning – draft and twist, with drop spindles.
Participants will leave with an appreciation of the process of spinning, and a list of resources to help further explore this world of fibre.
Workshop Leader: Kim Streker
Workshop Length: 1/4 Day Session
Don’t Forget: Please bring a drop spindle if you have one.
