The Introduction to Spinning Class May 2022 featuring Tutor Carmel Hanna. Double click on the first photo to see the full exhibition.
The 'Intro to Spinning' course takes you from a complete beginner to happily spinning your own yarn.
Our wonderful tutors teach all about fleece, spinning, plying, skeining, dyeing and blending fibres and colours. It's jam packed with hands on experience and our students love it.
