Saturday November 7th, 14, 21st from 12:30pm - 2:00pm

Learn how to transform fibre into yarn with our drop spindle class! In this class you will learn how to use a drop spindle to spin starting with woolly fibre and ending with a completed, ready to use yarn. You will learn how to spin a single ply yarn, how to spin a 2-ply yarn using the Andean Plying method, and how to chain ply for a 3-ply yarn over three classes. We will discuss spinning basics as well as different types of yarn, fibres, processing tools, and preparations and how these affect the finished yarn. 
Drop spindles must be brought by students or purchased in store.
50g of fibre provided in two different colours.
About the instructor:

If idle hands are the Devil’s tools, he hasn’t much to do with Anna (she/they.) Anna’s grandmother taught her to knit as a toddler and she hasn’t put the yarn down since. Knitting, crochet, spinning, dyeing, embroidery, hand sewing, machine sewing - Anna has a voracious appetite for learning new textile techniques. With a background in textile artifact conservation, Anna explores the craft, history, and science behind fibre arts.
