Learn to Spin

drop spindlesThere are several ways to learn to spin. Private lessons are available from several guild members; please send an email if you are interested in this option. There are also several retail stores in the area that offer spinning lessons. The Spinnery, in Neshanic, NJ, offers spinning lessons, as does The Mannings, in East Berlin, PA.

In addition, our guild provides short lessons on a drop spindle at many of the events at which we demonstrate spinning. We provide a small amount of wool for $4, and give you a simple handmade drop spindle with enough instruction to get you started. For more information, contact us using the form on the page here, and we'll get back to you with more details. Please be sure to tell us the area you live in so we can give you options that are closest to you.
