Hi all,
Turkish spindling is the order for this night’s activities. Our instructor, Lynnelle Peavy, will bring a variety of sizes of spindles. You may bring your own or try one of her’s. Please note that you will take your spinning home with you but not the spindle (unless it’s yours). Discussion of S vs Z spun yarn and how to make a leader from the fiber you are spinning. N-plying will also be discussed.
All supplies provided. All levels of experience invited to attend.
meeting: 5:30pm
program: 5:45pm
Please note: If School District 11 cancels classes due to inclement weather, FRFA meetings, general and board, will also be canceled.
