Benefits of Spinning

by Mark Steyn

First published 2014

Sarah stares at the spinning wheel in her grandmother's attic, wondering if she should invest in proper equipment or start with this dusty relic. She wants to learn spinning and weaving but feels overwhelmed by all the supplies and techniques. The craft looks complicated from the outside. Sarah worries that being a complete novice means she should start small and avoid ambitious projects. But experienced spinners tell her the opposite. The techniques are simpler to master than most people expect. She can treat this as a relaxing weekend activity or build it into something much bigger. Sarah must decide what she really wants from this ancient craft. Her choice will determine whether she picks up needles for casual fun or commits to transforming her entire life around fiber arts.
