Making Yarn from Scratch
by Lee Raven
List Price: $9.95
Cover: Softcover
Lee Raven has been spinning and offering her yarns and teaching skills for
many years. This slim book brings her approach to handspindle spinning to
the beginner. The tools and fiber preparations are kept simple and attainable.
The illustrations and information are clear and thorough. The projects that use
some of the yarn you've made are as fun and interesting as the spinning
instruction. Let Lee Raven guide you through the process of learning basic
spinning and yarn design.
You'll find here all you'll need to know to spin unique, beautiful, high-quality
yarns for your knitting, crocheting, or weaving. With very clear directions and
excellent diagrams, the author starts you on your spinning journey by simply
pulling some fibers from a small hand full of wool and spinning them on your
thigh. She proceeds rapidly from there.
