How to Spin

This little book is full of actual spinning instruction, unlike the fancy 101 book. It covers a huge amount of spinning subjects like tensioning, wool vs worsted, drafting, joining, twist, (pigtails!), both preparing fiber and finishing it, and it goes in depth! No photos, but has very detailed clear line drawings. There's a 10 page glossary and an index. This book gives tons of detailed information. It's a bargain.
