Drop Spindling – Making Yarn without a Wheel

Saturday, September 8, 9:30 – 11:30 a.m.

In this workshop with Maggie Howe of Prairieland Herbs, you will learn to use and take home your own wooden drop spindle for spinning wool roving into yarn. We will provide several kinds of roving and will talk about wool, its various preparations, and how to buy it. Come with a sense of adventure and a sense of humor; this is a tricky skill and it takes time, but we know you can do it! Preregistration with prepayment is required by Thursday, September 6.
