Spinning
Spinning Classes will be held each Saturday on a first come, first serve basis. The class is taught one on one and is quite popular so book in advance to avoid disappointment. I will take you from drafting to the drop spindle to the spinning wheel at your pace. You will get the opportunity to try a number of different fibers as well as a single and double treadle spinning wheel.
Come see why this 6000 year old art is a rapidly growing form of entertainment, relaxation with the end result of beautiful, custom made yarns.
