Let’s make yarn! Students will learn to spin with a traditional drop spindle. We will prepare and use natural fleece from local sheep as well as colorful dyed wool that has been blended with silk. At the end students will take home a small skein of their newly spun yarn. Visit https://mountainlaurel.org/curriculum/after-school-clubs/ for more information and to register.
