Learn to spin yarn and new Saori weavers at Saori Santa Cruz

Creating your one one of a kind yarns from fleece is so rewarding! and a new spinning wheel Spinolution Echo in the studio for students to learn on  too!


SPINOLUTION ECHO WHEEL
WITH WILDFLOWERS






the SPINOLUTION ECHO WHEELclick HERE in my Etsy shop



  DON'T YOU LOVE the laser wildflowers option?


  opening the box
4 screws , and 5 minutes later i was spinning on the Echo!
i ordered the 16 oz head and bobbins with mine  and the wildflowers  but it comes in 4,8,16,32 oz sizes and you can get the golden whorl accelerator  head now to for super  fine spinning or for  cotton..




 Debbie learns to spin!

  starting out with drop spindle  spining

  using the Louet double treadle  to learn to ply on a wheel

  Love the Louet Art Yarn flyer. LOUET WHEELS HERE



 Alison loved learning art yarn techniques increasing knowledge of  spinning tecniques
  ….and going back to  beginning spinning roots with the drop spindle so that she can spin on the go.
