Yarnitecture: A Knitter's Guide to Spinning: Building Exactly the Yarn You Want
Author: Jillian Moreno
Create your dream yarn! Discover the pleasures of designing and building custom-made yarn by spinning it yourself, choosing everything from color to feel and gauge. Jillian Moreno leads you through every step of yarn construction, with detailed instructions and step-by-step photos showing you how to select the fiber you want (wool, cotton, silk, synthetic), establish a foundation, and spin a beautiful yarn with the structure, texture, and color pattern that you want. In addition to teaching you the techniques you need for success, Moreno also offers 12 delicious original patterns from prominent designers, each one showcasing hand-spun yarns.

Great for intermediate spinners
"This book has done a great job of giving me a good understanding of how small details of how I handle and treat my fibers will change the final product. I spin and weave and now have a much better idea of what I should do with my fiber to tweak it when I have an idea of what direction I want to take a project in. I understand different drafting techniques and different finishing processes now. Very happy with this purchase. It assumes a certain level of knowledge, so it won't teach you how to spin, but you will learn how to tweak your spinning."

"This was exactly the book that I needed in order to take my spinning to the next level. Ms. Moreno is so detailed and thorough in this book and I have found that to be really helpful. I have struggled with having a plan for my projects and this book has helped me make strides towards better planning and better control over my yarn. It has also encouraged me to take the time over my sampling process. It will be a resource for me for many years to come."
