Review by Library Journal Review

In this complete overview of the art and science of creating hand-spun yarn, McCuin (Teach Yourself Visually: Handspinning) covers characteristics of different types of fiber, techniques for spinning yarns, and caring for hand-spun yarn and includes a few basic projects. She focuses primarily on spinning using a wheel, but the information is transferrable to a hand spindle. Novices will appreciate the easy-to-follow directions, while content on fiber preparation and novelty yarns will attract intermediate and advanced spinners. (c) Copyright 2010.
