    Spinning can be both relaxing and productive. Learn how to prepare, spin and ply wool fiber. The class will also discuss basic characteristics and spin various types of wool. After learning the basics of spinning, you will experiment with ways to create your own designer yarns for knitting, crocheting and weaving. Borrow a wheel from the guild or you may bring your own.
