This listing is for a three session Beginner Spinning Course. The classes will be held in person at Bistitchual on
Saturday September 26, October 3, and October 10 from 3:00pm-4:30pm
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.
