2022 Introduction to spinning (Summer)
Learn to spin with Canberra Spinners and Weavers! Using spinning wheel, participants will prepare scoured wool fibre, spin yarn and ply to make a yarn suitable to use for knitting or weaving. Classes are relaxed and informal and conducted over 4 Sunday afternoon sessions.
Participants will learn the whole process from fibre technology, tools and equipment, different types of wool, preparing, spinning and plying fibres. Classes are relaxed and informal. Participants can hire a spinning wheel from Canberra Spinners and Weavers, or use their own wheel (if it is suitable).
If bringing your own wheel it must be checked by the tutor prior to the class, if it is not suitable you will need to hire a wheel.
