Review
"A great and entertaining read. . . . Informative and funny . . . [despite] the very technical nature of the book." --Spindle and Wheel online magazine
Product Description
Alden Amos is a legend and mentor to the growing handcraft community of spinning. He shares his deep knowledge of wheel mechanics, spinning fibres, wheel construction, and yarn, as well as a wealth of spinning history and traditions. Every aspect of handspinning is explored, including dissolving lanolin, washing fleece, rotating wheel position, and choosing types of wool. Also discussed are various hand positions, which can result in everything from smooth, fine thread to funky, bulky yarn.
