Do you want to learn to spin your own yarn?
Do you have a spindle or spinning wheel and want to learn how to use it?
Do you have a fiber animal with lots of fiber and want to spin it?
Then join the Black Swamp Spinners’ Guild members on Saturday, April 30 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. for the
"Learn to Spin: 101" workshop. It will be held at the Bowling Green State University Mileti
Alumni Center at the corner of Mercer Road and Alumni Drive, just north of East Wooster Street.
Those attending will learn how to prepare fibers, use a wooden drop spindle, card and comb, and try many
different makes of spinning wheels. There will be several displays with handspun samples, hand-dyed
skeins, knitted, woven and felted items, and many books and magazines to view.
Class members should bring their own sack lunch; beverages and snacks will be provided. Participants will
receive a bag of fibers, a spindle and several handouts.
Enrollment is limited and the registration deadline is April 13. Contact Cindy Tyrrell at (419) 308-8816

Cost is $15 for members or $35 for non-members. Mail the fee to Tyrrell at 1040 W. Wooster St., Bowling
