What a precious treasure when the Lord gives you a friend that shares your heart. I am thankful for the gathering of such friends, young and old alike!
My amazing friend Sara has encouraged and taught me the art of fiber and spinning and generously passes her love and knowledge on to the next generation, just as it should be according to Titus 2:3-5. What a godly example she is to those around her.
She starts the class with show and tell of her amazing creations. Executed with intricate and elaborate details in each piece. The textures of wool, alpaca, silk and angora are passed around and fondled. Expressions of delight and enchantment are heard as they feel the extreme softness and press them against their cheeks.
Each person gets a bag of roving and is lead through the discovery of how to prepare it for spinning.
The drop spindles are next (made by Sara herself)
She teaches them how to hand graft the wool as they spin.
They are taught how to wrap the yarn on the spindle.
It was a great class. Thank you Sara!
She seeks wool and flax, And willingly works with her hands. Proverbs 31:13
