Now that you've mastered the art of dyeing a yarn, it's time to spin the perfect ball of fluff. This chapter will guide you through the process of spinning your own yarn from scratch, including choosing the right fibers, setting up your spinning rig, and coaxing those fibers into submission.
As we all know, spinning is an art that requires patience, dedication, and a willingness to get your hands dirty. But don't worry, we'll start with the basics and work our way up to more advanced techniques. By the end of this chapter, you'll be spinning like a pro (or at least, you'll be able to spin a decent ball of fluff).
Chapter 7: Twisting and Shaking covers the art of plying your yarn for maximum softness and durability.
Chapter 8: Weaving Your Way to Success shows you how to turn your freshly spun yarn into a beautiful piece of fiber art.
