How to Use a Spinning Wheel by Maggie Casey
Learn what it takes to get started making yarn, with expert advice, clear instructions and detailed illustrations. Maggie recommends starting with wool as it is the easiest fiber to learn on and it is widely available. Learn the drafting process, which is pulling out some of the fibers from the mass. This is the most important step in spinning because as you draft the fibers, you form the yarn. Maggie also discusses how to treadle to keep the wheel going. Practicing will allow you to build momentum and keep the wheel going in the correct direction.

When things go right in spinning, life is beautiful and effortless. When things go wrong, we mutter nasty things to our fiber and wheels. Instead of getting angry, stop, take a deep breath, and relax. What is really going on? We all have problems whether we've spun for forty years or four days. Solutions are simple if you know the troubleshooting possibilities. With your free eBook on spinning wheels, get solutions to common problems like: spinning wheel goes backward, spinning wheel is hard to treadle, yarn won't wind onto the bobbin, flyer won't turn when the spinning wheel is treadled.
How to choose your first spinning wheel by Rudy Amann
There are many spinning wheels available, and all of them will add twist to fiber and spin yarn. But some spinning wheels will be a better match for each spinner. In addition to price, there are some important things to consider that can usually narrow the choice to just a few wheels. Rudy walks you through the different factors to consider when choosing a spinning wheel:
- Which hand is your orifice hand and which hand is the fiber hand?
- Where will you be using it?
- How much space do you have?
- How do you position your feet on the treadle?
- What fibers and what type of yarn will you be spinning?
You may already have gone through this process, but I'm sure you know someone who is starting out. Feel free to send them the link to this Free How to Use and How to Choose a Spinning Wheel eBook. I recently read that people who have a craft that they are passionately involved in are happier than the average person. Of course, I didn't need to read a scientific study to learn that—it is obvious when I look around me at my all spinning friends. When you spread the joy of spinning, you share happiness, contentment, and love. All things the world need more of. Go forth and spin. The world needs us.
