SUMMARY:Long Draw & Chain Ply
DESCRIPTION: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! \nWe’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!
