Drop Spindle
Thursdays, June 3 & 10; 1:30 – 4:30pm Class fee: $65 + materials cost The history of making yarns is a long one, but the basic approach is still the same. Let instructor Linda Dean show you how to use a drop spindle to create your own yarn, and in doing so learn what creates various structures of the yarn itself.
