ADVANCED SPINNING WITH CAROL & PETE LEONARD
- Date: Saturday 4th June 2011
- Time: 1.30pm-4pm
Go further with spindle spinning – trying different spindles and fibres. This session looks at different weights of spindle and what is appropriate for which fibre, together with tips on spinning the fibres, and how to treat the yarn you create.
You will need some experience of spinning on a hand spindle before attempting this class, but if you took the morning workshop and found you had a natural gift then why not keep going into the afternoon?
£28 (includes wool, silk, mohair and alpaca fibres).
If you have any fibres that you would like to try and spin, please bring them along and transform them into some unique yarn!
You will come away with improved skills and more advanced techniques, plus samples of spun singles or plied yarns created from a blend of assorted natural fibres.
