With its soothing, meditative effect, handspinning is a relaxing hobby, and the beautiful yarns you create are an even better reward.

Whether you use an inexpensive hand spindle or splurge on a spinning wheel, stick with wool or try alpaca, cashmere, or cotton, you'll learn how to create fun, original, one-of-a-kind yarns that you can knit or weave into truly unique, handmade, and all-natural creations.
