About the Class

Ages 8 and up

In just a few hours, you can learn to make your own yarn on a drop spindle. Students will first make a “homemade” spindle then get started on learning the basics of understanding fiber. Then learn the basics of spinning without investing in a spinning wheel (yet!). Once you’re ready for a wheel, all of the skills you learn on the drop spindle will make you more successful. Supplies available for use during class include practice roving but students will have a working drop spindle to take home.

Class Fee $25, includes kit fee
