Drop Spindle for Beginners with Becks of Tiny Fibre Studio

This workshop is part of our Mill Open Weekend celebrations.

Back by popular demand! If you’ve ever dreamed of spinning your own yarn for knitting, crochet, weaving (or just for fun!) then this is the perfect class for you.

In this hands-on class, Becks will break down the key skills of spinning yarn into manageable sections, allowing you to learn at your own pace. You’ll build your confidence step by step and learn how to adapt the techniques for increased efficiency as you gain experience. By the end of the class, you’ll leave with a small skein of your 2ply hand-spun yarn and the confidence to keep creating your own yarn at home! See Eventbrite for full class description.

Skill Level Information: The class is aimed at beginners. No prior knowledge or experience of spinning is necessary.
What is included? You will receive 50g Appledore tops and a beginner spindle as class materials. These will be yours to keep and continue practicing with after the class. Appledore is our grippiest fibre, so the best suited to beginner spinners. You will also receive a complimentary voucher for a beverage from the pop-up MOW café.
What do students need to bring? Nothing, just an open mind and a willingness to learn something new.
