Spinning
Class
On Saturday, February 22, 2014 starting at 10:00 am CST the Panhandle Pioneer Settlement presents Melissa
Marvin as the instructor for a Beginner Spinning Class. The cost of the class
is $40.00 with a $20.00 deposit required to reserve your spot. All
supplies are included. A spinning wheel is not required; however, if you
wish like to bring your spinning wheel you may. A drop spindle is the
oldest form of spinning tool, it is basically a dowel stuck through a weighted
wheel that is used to put twist into the fiber. The class will teach the
fundamentals of spinning wool, learning how to draft the fiber, how to ply 2
spun singles together to make a 2 ply yarn, spinning terms, and some basics
about different fibers. Melissa will be bringing her wheel so the students will
have a chance to try spinning on it. Give Diane Watson a call at (850)
