Learn how to spin your own artisan yarn using a drop spindle with The Colour Dasher


A fun workshop to introduce you to the art of spinning your own yarn using a drop spindle, a great activity for fans of crocheting, knitting, weaving or tapestry!

What is a drop spindle?


A drop spindle is a tool for spinning fibres into lengths of yarn or threads. As the name suggests, it drops down and hangs from your fibres whilst it's spinning.


This 1.5-hour workshop will show you the basics of spinning wool fibres into your yarn, which you will then be able to take home. You will have use of a drop spindle in the workshops, and a choice of many colours of fibre to use interchangeably.


There will also be starter kits available for purchase if you would like to continue at home!


If you're not able to attend this workshop, there's another session running on Wednesday 2nd July (2.30pm - 4pm). More information here.
