I really enjoyed these classes! Wendy has offered a series of lessons which has taken us through the basics of spinning and given us a great introduction to fibres and how they work. She was generous with her time and resources and clear and patient with her students! Highly recommended!

Pretty amazing that in just 4 classes you can learn to spin . Wendy provides lots of tips and tricks and is very patient and supportive. She is more than generous with the class materials she provides. She is also an excellent wheel mechanic and can fix mechanical problems if they occur. Rey enjoyable experience.
