A happy, gentle, novice-friendly introduction to spinning wool on a
spinning wheel: a surprisingly easy to learn and fascinating historical
art and craft. Wool enthusiasts of all ages and backgrounds adore the
spinning wheel for its gentle, meditative nature. Rhythmic motions,
soft fibres, and a relaxed, seated posture make spinning ideal for
anyone looking to calm the nerves, unstress the brain, and at the
same time make beautiful, affordable handspun yarns for knitting,
weaving, crocheting and other fibre arts. You will go home with
a ball of your very own handspun pure wool yarn.We provide everything you'll need for this wonderful experience: a
variety of spinning wheels for you to try, natural wool, easy lessons,
good company and a cup of tea.Class size: 6 students
