Wool Spinning: Create-Connect Workshop at Pinecrest Village

March 15 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Learn 19th-century spinning method – the drop spindle!

We are learning how to spin custom yarn from fiber on a drop spindle with incredible fiber artist Carol Wagner, from Hidden Valley Farm and Woolen Mill.

Learn the basics of spinning wool, a timeless skill that Wisconsinites have been doing for generations! Participants will get to feel the differences between different breeds of wool, hone their skills using a drop spindle, and take home yarn that they’ve spun themselves. The class includes all the supplies, including your very own drop spindle to take home.

Class size is very limited – reserve your spot today!
