• Perfect Beginner's Book 02 August, 2005
New spinners should have a copy of this book in their library. Not only does it tell you about spinning, the history of spinning and spinning wheels, it also provides a brief synopsis of spinning exotic fibers.

• A Good Start 25 March, 2003
I purchased this book as I was unsure of whether I wanted to spend a lot of money on spinning, and I just wanted to get some of the basic information. That was 4 months ago, and I have bought a spinning wheel. This book gave me the basic information about types of spinning, wheels, types of fibers, as well as technique information on types of drafting, how to set yarn and basic yarn structure. It was very much what I thought it was, a book to get someone started without a lot of initial outlay.

• Good Basic Book , For The Novice! 25 December, 2007
This is a good, basic, spinning book. However.....
It need an update! There is a Sources of supply section, at the back of the book. Not one online link! Published in 1981, with no updates on sources? That is my only negative.

• The Whole Craft Of Spinning: From The Raw Material To The Finished Yarn 15 March, 2006
The book was very basic and an excellent resource for the novice spinner. I was able to teach myself how to use my spinning wheel and how to spin my own wool. Highly recommend this reference.
