Adventures in Spinning
I went to a spinning class yesterday. I was the only one to show up to the class so it was like a private lesson. A friend of mine gave me a drop spindle a couple months ago and I've been spinning some on that. I bought a book and some roving and it's taken me to while to get the hang of it. So I decided to take a spinning class at Yarnhouse in Charlotte. The teacher was really nice and had a lot of good tips. She helped me with my hand placement and pre drafting. It took a while for me to get the hang of treadling with two feet but it was so much fun! Here are some pictures of what I did.
