Spinning is a craft that transforms raw fiber into usable yarn, and Centennial crafters who have always been curious about the practice will be able to learn the fundamentals as part of an upcoming two-part workshop.
Piney Creek Yarn Shop will be introducing the public to the use of the drop spindle, which is noted as an easy and economically friendly way to get started. There will be two classes that run for an hour and a half each, and it will be held in the shop's 15422 East Orchard Road location.
Participants will be taught the basics of using a drop spindle, and this portable device is small enough that it can be tucked into a bag or large purse. Everyone in these hands-on sessions will be able to ask any questions they might have, and the registration process must be completed for both dates.
A crafting class like this offers a gentle introduction to a hobby, which often makes it especially attractive to those who are just getting started. A flyer printing company can supply an assortment of ways to let the public know where and when it will be on offer.
The dates for this introduction to a thrifty technique are November 7 and 21, both Sundays. It will start at 10:00 am and run until 11:30 am.
