Product Description
Review
If the words 'warp' and 'weft' spark off a dream of sitting by a spinning wheel on a wintry afternoon, this book can make your dreams come true. It explains everything you need to know about fibre types and how to spin, and includes several start-to-finish spin-and-knit projects.-AllAboutYou.com
Product Description
Judith's educated, gently opinionated, and fun to read blend of technical knowledge, history, tips, and narrative takes the form of a compendium of spinning wisdom. Yarn making is approached in three fundamental areas: understanding fibers, managing yarn structure, and making yarns that precisely meet the spinner's needs. The Fibers section of "The Intentional Spinner" blends the rich historic traditions of plant and animal fibers with the fascinating scientific advances in synthesizing fiber.The Yarn Structure chapters use step-by-step instructions and photographs to demonstrate the range of possibilities in yarn, from sturdy plied yarns to playful novelty yarns. Finally, the Practical Uses section leads the reader through decision making and planning to create the very project they want from the beginning. The book also includes four projects that demonstrate how handspun can be used in weaving and knitting. Projects explain how to choose material, techniques, and finish the processes. Blending technical expertise and fascinating lore, "The Intentional Spinner" is a must-read for every spinner.
