- How do I know when I have enough twist when I ply?
- How do I spin silk?
- How do I use handcards or wool combs?
- What is a diz and how do you use it?
- What are the different ways you can spin from a batt?
- How do I spin on a hand-spindle?

Prerequisites
This workshop is for anyone who wants to learn something new about their spinning. Or just fix something so that you can spin a little bit better.

Tools and Supplies You Need to Bring
- As this is a drop-in, you will need to bring the tools and fibre that you want to work with. If you don’t have a specific fibre that you want to learn about, give us a heads up so that Elana can have some available to purchase for that afternoon.
- If you are spinning, - a tube such as a paper towel or a toilet paper roll.
- If you are processing fibre (carding or combing it) - bring some small bags or envelopes to bring your fibre home with you.

Materials Included
- None. You will bring or purchase the fibre that you want to work with.

• Note that people can join late, but would still pay the flat rate fee ($25) for the session.
• No fibre costs if bringing you own fibre.
• Note: if we choose to focus on a specific fibre or set of fibres for one session, Elana will put together a kit fee that will be payable when you arrive for the drop-in.
