Items From The Catalog

Perusing the Colorado Free University the other day, I came across this: Beginning Drop Spindle
Spinning Your Own Wool

Spin your own yarn using a wooden drop spindle, the centuries old technique of spinning wool. You will learn to make single plies of yarn you can then use for weaving, knitting, or crocheting. Discussion will include the plying of wool and the preparation of the yarn for use in crafts. If you also want to learn the techniques of spinning dog hair, then start brushing your pups and bring the hair along to class. Included in the supply fee is a wooden drop spindle, a roving of clean wool, and instructions. Jane Wunder. $54 Non-Member $49 Member $25 materials fee payable in class NORTHGLENN: 104th & I-25 1671E: One Sat., 10 am-4 pm 11/13

Let's take a moment and digest this, shall we? " . . . learn the techniques of spinning dog hair, then start brushing your pups and bring the hair along to class." WTF? This is something people are interested in doing? This is something that a class is encouraging people to do? "Here, Sage, I have knitted you a lovely sweater, made entirely of pet hair. Merry Christmas." This is a great way to lose friends. Stay tuned. This catalog is gold.
