Summary: Excellent book for new spinners
Review: This is an excellent book for new and experienced spinners. "Spindle Spinning" not only explores spinning techniques, but looks at the history and culture of the art. For anyone interesting in fiber arts and spinning, it is more satisfying to begin with ancient art of spindle spinning, than the mechanized spinning wheel.
