4.0 out of 5 stars Great Spinning Basics, 9 Oct 2008

By	machelle (Wales, UK) - See all my reviews

This is a fantastic book if you want to know the basics of spinning; don't buy this expecting to learn about spinning fancy yarns and full colour photographs. Instead, expect to know about the history if spinning, different wheels and spindles, in addition to valuable information about preparing fleece, choosing the right wool, finishing yarns and some pointers one how to spin unconventional fibres such as pet hair, hemp and even human hair!
An absolute must for a hand spinner!

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid basics, 2 Feb 2009

By	Gaupe (Norway) - See all my reviews

This book presents the craft in a way that's easily approached. It leads you though the basics of choosing and preparing wool, using a drop spindle, using a wheel, plying and caring for your yarn, as well as a description of different fibers. Everything is explained in very clear language, and although there aren't any fancy photos, the drawings are clear and to the point.

This book also contains must-know info such as how to BAKE your own spindle and how to spin milkweed or dandylion into yarn.

All in all, if you're trying to understand this craft but are overwhelmed by the vocabulary, this book will see you through it safely.
