TUITION  


When I left teaching a little while ago I certainly did not intend to teach any more!

However, barely two hours had passed at my first craft fair before I had unearthed my crochet hook and yarn, attracted interest in what I was making, and found myself inadvertently teaching again…

These days demonstrating at events is on a par with selling my creations but it’s never to ‘show off’ my skills, it is to engage, inform and inspire onlookers to participate in yarn crafts, because one of the uplifting things about being creative is that ‘YESSSS!’ moment when you master a skill or finish a project to your satisfaction -  the other uplifting thing is helping someone else achieve a ‘YESSS!’ moment of their own…

And that’s why I sell Kits, offer Drop Spinnng, Peg Loom Weaving, and Knit & Crochet workshops, and run UNWIND Craft and Chat sessions, so that anyone who wants to learn, improve or be inspired by yarn can engage and enjoy the process and complete a project at their own pace.

"I purchased a Stick Spinning Kit from A Tail of Yarn, followed the short online tutorial video sent to me and was so happy with the my new found skill I posted a picture of the yarn I spun to show what I had achieved!

Thank you again @a_tail_of_yarn - this spinning I can do!" :o)
