Long Draw & Chain Ply

In this intermediate 2.5-hour class, we’ll explore two game-changing techniques that will open up new creative possibilities in your handspun yarn: long draw and chain plying!

We’ll start with long draw spinning, a technique that creates soft, lofty singles compared to the relatively more smooth and dense singles that are achieved with the short-forward method of spinning. You’ll learn to let the fiber flow freely and find that the singles will practically spin themselves!
