Intermediate Drop Spinning and Plying Techniques
About Intermediate Drop Spinning and Plying Techniques
Have you already taken a beginner drop spinning class and have spun some yarn but now want to level-up your game? In this class, we will take a deep dive into the physics of spindles, look at and work with multiple types of drop spindles, and will break down each movement then build your skill back up. We will also cover multiple plying options and how to finish your yarn. All attendees will go home with handspun yarn that they have made.
The capacity for this class is 12 students.
