TO HOW TO SPINN YARN CLASSES AT SAORI SANTA CRUZ STUDIO

 students came to learn to spin and learn new skills 

meet bonnie, she has alpaca (17) and a few llamas and was having trouble learning to spin on her wheel 

i started bonnie out on the spinolution firefly to have her understand drafting without needing to worry about the treadling 

we tried her Lady bug but she had a hard time keeping it going in the correct direction it kept reversing making a mess! 

so she also brought her Louet s15  too and she i tried  spinning her on that and she did  so much better and even plied ! .

and she was plying as well! now to go home and pratice!
