Spinning is a delightfully low-tech craft in our hurried electronic age. It can provide an anecdote to our computer-based lives. Once you learn to spin your own yarn, the process can be quite relaxing. The physical movement of your hands and feet is repetitive and allows your body to settle in to the soothing, rhythmic nature of the craft.
Why Spin?
Make the kind of yarn you want to use.
Identify and participate in a craft that women have been doing for centuries. Be a part of history.
This ancient craft is unusual now so help keep it alive and in the public’s awareness.
Spinning is a hands-on craft which (if you are at all like me) discourages nibbling in front of the TV.
