Spinning Courses

"Learned to spin yarn. Really interesting and achieved something new. A great tutor plus the store is a real treasure trove!" Karen C. Surrey

Come to one of our spinning courses in our bright colourful studio in Betchworth, Surrey! (Full address at foot of home page).

On our Spinning Courses you will learn about the wool and fibre used for spinning and how to prepare it. There are only two students per course, so you will get plenty of attention and assistance and YOUR OWN spinning wheel to spin on for the day.

Spinning courses at The Gilliangladrag Fluff-a-torium are taught by the lovely patient Roz Langendoen who is a very experienced Spinner! Roz will guide you through the Spinning process right from the beginning, explaining everything in an easy to understand way. All being well you should leave with your own skein of hand spun yarn at the end of the day! :-)
