CRAFTING SKILL #5: Hand-Spinning Wool Workshop

For the fifth workshop in the series, we will explore the art of hand-spinning wool and transforming raw fibres into yarn. Together, we will learn the fundamentals of spinning, experiment with different coloured fibres, and discover how twisting creates strong and beautiful yarn.

Participants will have the opportunity to play with colour by blending fibres, explore different textures and thicknesses, and create their own unique hand-spun yarn to take home. The workshop will also introduce simple spinning techniques using drop spindles while reflecting on the long history of fibre crafts, slow making, and the value of working with natural materials.

This workshop is open to all skill levels, from complete beginners to those with previous spinning experience. All materials and tools will be provided.

Each session of CRAFTING SKILL focuses on learning simple craft techniques while creating space for sharing knowledge, slowing down, and working collectively. The series brings people together to reconnect with materials, creativity, and each other in an open and welcoming environment.
