Saturdays, 2pm to 4pm Saturday 11 February to Saturday 2 December
Ever wanted to learn how to use a spinning wheel? Now is your chance! In this live-streaming course, you will learn simple tips for using a spinning wheel.
Spinning is the twisting technique where the fibre is drawn out, twisted and wound onto a bobbin.
This is a virtual class where you will be spinning along with the teacher in real time. Your friendly teacher Narda will also show you some of her award-winning pieces - made from fleece to finished pieces- to inspire you to create your own pieces using a spinning wheel.
These sessions also cover how to dye your own fleece using food colouring & how to ply.
You can use your own yarn to make beautiful pieces for family and friends with some practice. This yarn can be used for weaving, felting projects, knitting and crocheting.
At the end of the three sessions, you will feel confident using your spinning wheel to create beautiful, fully designed-pieces!
