Teaching

Expand your spinning with yarns that range from the smoothest worsted to the loftiest woolen. One extreme creates firm, hard-wearing yarns with crisp definition, and the other maximizes softness and warmth – and feels like magic to spin! This skill-building week covers a variety of drafting and fiber preparation techniques, including working with multiple fibers, designing yarns for different uses, blending fibers, and spinning novelties. Best suited for intermediate and above students who can spin a continuous yarn.
