Spinning Yarn at FabLab
Do you need more yarn in your life? (That’s a trick question. Everyone needs more yarn in their life.) Step up your fiber game and impress your craft group by learning how to make your own yarn! Here’s how:
Get Started on a Drop Spindle
Drop spindles are a great way to get started. You don’t need any large equipment, just a spindle. (It’s like a fidget toy except it makes yarn while you fidget.) Drop spindle classes are available as group or private lessons.
Level Up With a Spinning Wheel
If you’ve been spinning on a drop spindle and want to learn the spinning wheel, we have one for use in our fiber craft room! Spinning wheel classes are available as private lessons only.Â
Group Lessons
Drop Spindle
We have two drop spindle group classes scheduled for summer 2023! Classes are $45 and include a 3D printed drop spindle and 2 oz wool roving. Click on the links below to sign up:
OR if you and two other friends want to set up another time, email Angela at [email protected] and we can schedule an extra class
Private Lessons
Drop Spindle and Spinning Wheel
Private lessons go at your own speed. You also get to direct the focus on what interests you the most, like spinning technique, different fibers and preparations, or color blending/dyeing. Email Angela at [email protected] to schedule!
