Handspun yarn is truly unique and wonderful to work with, soft yet durable, and creates a lasting quality item that will retain its softness, shape, and comfort for years.
This five hour workshop, will introduce you to the joy of spinning your own yarn. There will be spinning wheels to use and wool fibre will be provided. If you have a wheel you are welcome to bring it.
For the beginning spinner, the goal is to have enough at day’s end to knit a small item or large sample.
If you have ever wanted to see how yarn is made and try making it yourself this workshop is perfect for you.
Workshop will be Sat. April 5th 9am - Noon, 1pm - 3pm

Spinner, Knitter, Weaver
I attended the Emily Carr College of Art majoring in textile design. I specialize in handspun, knitted and woven items of clothing and home accessories using natural fibers such as wool, mohair, silk, and cotton. Exotic fibers such as cashmere, quiviut or alpaca are sometimes the framework for exceptionally special items.
