Supplies!!! ( the most fun part)

If you want to buy a drop spindle I recommend a classic top whorl like used in this workshop. I recommend Snyder Spindles ( no affiliation I just like them myself I have 4!)

For natural wool you can find many farmers who ship wool at My Local Wool ( our sister site)

You can also make a drop spindle from things you probably have at home check out our blog post.

I’m including this webinar in its entirety for those of you would like to see how spinning is on a spinning wheel vs a drop spindle now that you’ve gotten a bit of a handle on the basics with a drop spindle.

This webinar is filmed on a SpinOlution Pollywog Spinning Wheel

I’m so excited that this is done and ready for people to enjoy. I listened to what you wanted and show this entire workshop on both a SpinOlution Pollywog and a Top Whorl Drop Spindle. This Web Workshop is a combination of skills that I have taught in more depth in both our smaller “ Spinning the Basics” “ Drop Spindle Course & Dream Yarn Course”.

In this workshop you will learn

• How to attach fiber to a wheel and spindle

• basics of drafting and spinning

• basics of designing thicker or thinner yarn and adding in texture for more of an “ Art Yarn” Look
