What does your perfect yarn feel like? Is it bouncy merino? Silky and smooth? Warm alpaca? 🤔

In our upcoming Spinning 101 class, you don't just learn how to spin—you get to experiment with what you spin! Instructor Bree Jernigan will introduce you to a variety of luxury fibers in this 4-session class. You’ll feel the difference and discover what you love best.

This isn’t just a class; it’s a tactile exploration of color and texture. Imagine the satisfaction of turning this raw beauty into your very own yarn. 🧶✨

Join us on Wednesdays in May (6, 13, 20, & 27). The cost is $95 (plus $15 cash supply fee on Day 1). Pre-registration is essential so we can send you necessary info before the first class.

See you at the wheel!
