you to spin in 2 to 3 lessons. These lessons take place at our shop and are
on a one to one basis. You will be taken through the rudiments of the craft
to the stage where you can spin and ply yarn suitable for a variety of uses.

prepare fleece for spinning. § The current charge is $15.00 an hour (1 lesson) and it normally takes 2 to 3 lessons to begin producing acceptable yarn. §

WEAVING
LESSONS §
If you have
always wanted to learn to weave or you wish to brush up on the skills you may
have learnt at school Carol is the person to see. It is an advantage to have
your own loom as there is plenty to do at home. Carol will take you through
the rudiments of weaving from preparing your warp to finishing off your
completed article. Weaving is a more complex craft than spinning and the
number of lessons depends on how complex you wish to weave. All lessons are
at the shop and are on a one to one basis. § The current charge is $15.00 an hour (1 lesson) and it may take a number of lessons to become proficient depending on the standard you wish to meet. §
