Are you able to spin a continuous yarn but find it difficult to spin consistently? This workshop will break down all the elements of a consistently spun yarn that includes drafting styles, fiber preparation, and understanding twist. You will leave more confident in spinning any type of weight of yarn more evenly and consistently as well as how to maintain consistency when spinning over several sessions for a project's worth of yarn.
Skill Level Required: Advanced beginner - you should be able to spin a continuous yarn, but not necessarily consistently.
Spindlers are welcome, however, the focus will be geared more towards wheel/e-spinners, but the concepts taught are transferable no matter the tool choice used for the yarn construction.
Homework: n/a
