Drop Spindle Class
Regular price ~~~~ $90.00Unit price/per
Level: Beginner
One 2-hour class
Join us for a private 2-hour class to learn the fundamentals of hand-spinning, taught by Yukako. You will explore the whole journey of turning fiber to yarn, including drafting, carding and blending techniques, and how to spin natural roving wool into single-ply and two-ply yarn. You will take home approximately 35g or more of your own hand-spun yarn.
Drop spindle provides a convenient and portable method for spinning. We recommend taking this class before moving on to Spinning Wheel to build a foundational understanding of the spinning process if you have never tried it before.
Details
Class Outline:
- Students will first learn to spin roving wool (pre-carded) into one-ply yarn.
- Learn fiber preparation techniques by carding wool using a carder tool
- Students will blend wool to make custom color with small hand carders to make another one-ply yarn.

Spinning wheel is faster and produces more yarn than drop spindle, but requires knowledge of drafting technique. For this reason, we recommend students take our Drop Spindle class first. We teach on an Ashford Kiwi3 Spinning Wheel. Instruction is curated to your individual learning objectives. For example, you can choose not to learn how to card.
