A few months ago I went on an art retreat with my spinning wheel and tried out a few of the techniques in Jacey Boggs’ book Spin Art. Since then I haven’t had time to pick it up again or practise what I learned, but Monika of red2white and Marian of Florcita are just starting a new challenge, Web Spins: ‘The aim is to improve our basic spinning and learn new spinning techniques to be able to create various types of textured yarns’. Slow spinning – one technique a month. Sounds perfect.

Thank you, Fiona, for spreading the word. I am really looking forward to this and though very busy, I think we can manage one technique a month, even if it was just few meters we spin, we can always come back to our favorite ones later on.
