Learn the basics of how to go from raw fiber to colorful novelty yarn beginning with a drop spindle. This class teaches the fundamentals of spinning yarn. Students learn about fiber preparation, principles of twist and how to use a drop spindle to create yarn in the first 3 lessons. The final lesson will demonstrate spinning wheel operation and an introduction to using the spinning wheel. Materials required: drop spindle, 2 oz wool roving, large dowel or knitting needle, pencil and paper, an apron or lap cover. Three weeks $45 per lesson plus materials (fiber at $2.50 per oz based on student's consumption during the class)
