Spinning multiple plies (singles) of handspun yarn together creates strength, balance and character. If you are comfortable spinning consistent singles on your spinning wheel, then join Anna Hosick-Kalahan - co-owner of Skagit Woolen Works -- for a next step in your spinning adventures! We'll talk about the primary points of plying for balance, including direction, amount of twist, and numbers of plies, and how setting or blocking your yarn can be the definitive final step. We'll practice plying 2- and 3-ply yarns, while talking about different tools and techniques. Once we've learned "the rules" of plying, we dive right in to a discussion on how breaking them can open the doors to non-traditional and art-yarns.Material list: Loaner wheels and materials included, but if you have your own wheel you are encouraged to bring it! Please bring 2 or more bobbins of finished singles if you have it.
