Stop getting frustrated. Start getting even.

Almost every spinner wishes for even, uniform yarns, but the perfectly consistent skein can be elusive. Spinning teacher and author Beth Smith shows you how to take control of your yarn and create yarns that are more regular. In the process, she teaches you techniques for improving your spinning from first drafts to finishing. 

In this spinning video you will learn:

  • Beth’s secret for maintaining even twist 
  • When and how to count treadles for consistency 
  • How samples keep you on track at every stage of spinning 
  • Ways to maintain a steady grist in woolen, worsted, and plied yarns 


Lumpy bumpy yarns no more! Join Beth on the chase for the perfect skein of consistent yarn in this video.
