Spin Off Submissions Fall 2024: Spindle and Spinner

Calling all spindle-lovers! Share your tips, techniques, and historical deep-dives with Spin Off.

Are you a spindle-centric spinner who wants to share your thoughts on whorl shape? Are there tips for supported spindle spinning that you think will help your spinning fellows? We want to hear from you! In our annual tool issue, we want to discuss spindle traditions; helpful tools, such as spindle kates; pairing fibers and spindle types; and projects that are a perfect fit for spindle-spun yarns. How do you keep your spindle safe when traveling? Do you have strong opinions about hooks?

Submissions due: November 20, 2023

We are looking for:

Feature articles—stories, profiles, history.
Handspun projects—instructions using knitting, weaving, crochet, or other techniques with handspun yarn.
How-to articles—tell us how it is done.
Web content—if you have an idea for a shorter piece, about 300 to 500 words, please submit your proposal to us.

Have an idea that doesn’t fit our theme? Send that to us, too! We may be able to use it in an upcoming issue.
