In this workshop, participants will be introduced to the craft of creating yarn with a spinning wheel.  We will spin "singles" from wool rovings, and then create a 2-ply yarn from those singles.  We will touch on washing fleeces, carding and combing, care of your wheel, and finishing yarns.

Supplies:  Participants will need to bring a spinning wheel that works, with at least one bobbin.

Additional Fees for materials: $15 (includes samples for examination, fibers for spinning, notebook with handouts)
