Iniciación al hilado con huso
If you want to learn how to spin in the traditional way, you can’t miss the workshop by Tejo lo que hilo. Mar will teach you the manual spinning process from scratch: from the preparation of the fibre with a drum carder and hand carders to the manual spinning with the help of a spindle.
She will also explain the different types of fibres, their properties, how they behave during spinning, what each one provides and how to combine them. She only works with natural fibres as, unlike synthetic fibres, they are renewable, recyclable and biodegradable.
In this theoretical and practical workshop, you will learn everything you need to practice at home and spin your own fibres independently. Are you up for it?
