About the Event
Join me for two days of hand spinning to explore two distinctly different methods of hand spinning ie Worsted and Woollen Long Draw.Â
Having the ability to spin such a range of yarns will really open up your hand spinning possibilities and equip you to create both drapey, robust yarns and softer more lofty yarns using a range of fibres.
Over the two days we shall explore and discuss a range of fibres to ensure you understand how to get the best from the various fibre properties to really enhance your spinning and the projects that you create from them.
You will use a range of carders and wool combs including English Wool Combs to prepare the fibres before concentrating on the spinning technique and you will produce at least one skein of each to take home.
All fibres will be supplied for each day and you may bring your spinning wheel, bobbins and any associated equipment needed. Combs and carders are available to use but please bring your own if you have any.
As this is a special event refreshments and a light vegetarian lunch will be provided. Please ensure that I am aware of any allergies at the time of booking please.
