7:00 to 9:00 pm CDT
Zoom link will be sent out via the Googlegroup
We put a lot of thought into the care and maintenance of our equipment when we spin and weave. But what about the human being behind the equipment? Good posture at your loom, a proper heigh at your spinning wheel, efficient motions that don’t cause repetitive strain injuries or other problems down the road – it’s all important to ensure you’ll be spinning and weaving for as long as possible. And what if you’re returning to your weaving and spinning after an injury? Join us as we discuss ergonomics in spinning and weaving. Bring your own experience and tips to share with others.
