Description: Twisting fiber into yarn is arguably the oldest of all technologies. For most of human history, all yarns were spun using a very simple tool: the drop spindle. In this workshop, we will use drop spindles to create yarn from wool fiber. We will spin “singles” and we will make a 2-ply yarn. Participants will take home a CD drop spindle.
Homework: None
Tools Needed: A readiness to try something new! If you have a drop spindle, do bring it (if not, one will be provided in class).
Materials Fee: $15
