In this course, the wool spin with hand spindle as usual in the home of the alpacas. The advantage of the hand spindle compared to the spinning wheel known in Germany is that handling the hand spindle is perfect for beginners and that each participant can easily continue spinning at home, since hand spindle and Co. can be stored very space -saving.
The course instructor Marisela is part of our team from the beginning of the Alpakadorf. She walks with the alpacas several times a week and has been working by hand since the first shearing.
She has already taught several employees to spiders and from autumn 2023 she now also offers spider courses for interested wool lovers.
The spinning course takes place several times a year in our comfortably furnished Alpakadorf shop in Braunschweig-Stöckheim (Leipziger Straße 201, 38124 Braunschweig).
