Nutmeg Spinners' Guild Meeting

Spindling for One and All

Arrive around 8:30 a.m. - the program will begin at 9:00 a.m.

Many members of the guild are very talented spindle spinners and they have offered to lead us in various types of spindle spinning.

The agenda will include demonstration and mentoring on a variety of Drop Spindles, Supported Spindles, standard plying techniques, ply as you go, and using an e-spinner for plying. Barbara Morrow will donate some of her stash for members’ practice. Bring your own spindles if you have them and your own stash too, and if you don’t have one, we will make sure to have some spares for you to try during the meeting. If we are really lucky, some of our members with very special spindle collections may bring them for show and tell. Beginning spinners feel free to bring your wheels to get some help before the program starts and during breaks. If spindle pinning is not your thing, feel free to bring whatever you want to work on.
