Description

What you'll learn in this craft class:

Make your own yarn!!

In this beginner-level class, you'll learn to spin your own yarn using a simple tool called a drop spindle -- no spinning wheel required!

This is a perfect craft for fiber-loving apartment dwellers, as it requires only minimal tools and a small amount of space, yet it packs a huge punch. You can even spin on the subway. What's better than making your own custom yarn?!

In this workshop, you'll learn:

  • Overview of various plant and animal fiber types
  • How to prepare fiber for spinning on a drop spindle
  • Everything you need to know to start spinning yarn, including:
    • Pre-drafting and staple length
    • Attaching a leader
    • Spindling
    • Potential problems and how to fix them
    • Plying
Each student will make a 4-ounce ball of wool yarn, which you can use to knit, weave, or simply to take home and admire!

Four ounces of wool fiber is included with class, and drop spindles will be provided for use during class.

Skill Requirements:

No previous experience is required for this class. All are welcome!
