About the event

WHAT TO EXPECT:


Learn the time-honored technique of spinning raw wool into yarn using a drop spindle! Hand spinning yarn is one of the oldest crafts and is central to all textile-based projects.


By the end of the workshop, students will have a small skein of yarn and the foundational knowledge to continue spinning your own yarn!


Participants will get your own drop spindle (one of the earliest tools used to spin wool!) and bag of roving to take home to continue the process of what you have learned.
