The Practical Spinner's Guide - Wool

For answer to LOTS of spinning questions, fibre artist and shepherdess Kate Larson presents The Practical Spinner’s Guide: Wool.

Kate is a well-loved contributor and respected instructor in the spinning community. Selecting fleece, understanding types of fleeces, and making the best use of the fleece one has is an art form.

There are various and often conflicting approaches to nearly every aspect of the journey a fleece will make from sheep to finished textile. All of the various methods of fleece preparation and spinning have a place in a spinner’s repertoire of skills. Knowing when and how to make use of these skills is the foundation of Kate’s approach to teaching.

The Practical Spinner’s Guide: Wool is a must-have resource, in which she shares her years of experience in a way that readers of all skill levels, from those working from fleeces sheered from their own flocks to those spinning indie dyed fibers, will find useful and valuable.
