  • Between sessions: Time to practice and build confidence.
  • Day 2: Learn how to ply yarn to create a balanced 2-ply, and explore how colour can be used in yarn design.

Students may bring their own spinning wheel* or arrange to borrow a Guild wheel (with a deposit) to take home and practice between sessions.
