Electric Sheep

Service Description

Tempted by spinning but not sure a regular wheel’s for you? Intrigued by the idea of making just the yarn you want but not sure where you’d put a wheel if you had one? Feet/knees not doing what you want as painlessly as they used to, making the whole treadling part of wheel spinning look less than fun? Take an e-spinner for, well, a spin! Try several out in this experiential, process-oriented class for folks just starting their spinning journey. E-spinners are small, tabletop-friendly, juiced up and ready to go–you might discover one that’s just right for you! What does the materials fee include?: Shared use of instructor’s herd of e-spinners–including models by Ashford, Daedalus, Dreaming Robots, Hansen, SpinOlution, and more; use of various types of fiber for spinning. Student Requirements (materials, skills, etc.):  No participant-provided materials required. Students just need to bring their curiosity and willingness to learn–and their patience with the process and with themselves.  No previous experience required; class is specifically designed for new spinners who want to explore e-spinning. Class open to students 12 years old and up. Students must have enough manual dexterity to hold and draft wool roving and must be able to to focus for the duration of the class.
