Spin-Off, Spring 1987 Digital Edition

This out-of-print and hard-to-find issue of Spin-Off looks at color in spinning, from using a color wheel, growing a dye garden to create natural colors for dyeing, to discovering naturally colored cottons.

This issue also looks at other great spinning tips and tricks, including looking at twist, using overtwisted yarns for a collapse weave, and more.

Projects in this issue include knitted tube socks, color blended woven scarves, a gorgeous knitted fair-isle sweater.
