      Synopsis

      From soft, bulky single yarns to serviceable three-ply for heavy use, this guide to handspun yarns combines the positive traits of commercial yarns with personal touches. Focusing at first on the spinning wheel, emphasis is placed on the importance of adjusting and customizing the wheel for best results. Instructions on core spinning and less traditional techniques lead off the beaten path to novelty yarns. Each type of yarn is explored in detail with instructions on how to make them.

      Knitting News

      5 out of 5 stars. This is an excellent book for anyone interested in spinning. It is not a "learn to spin" book, but a book about the entire concept of spinning and fiber.
