Going just a tad OT, can you recommend any introductory
book for spinning and weaving?

i took a class, but i've been usingTeach Yourself Visually:
Handspinning by Judith MacKenzie McCuin.
it covers both hand spindles & wheels.
hint: if you decide to start with a hand spindle, get one
that has a bit of weight but not too heavy.
what type of weaving are you interested in? loom? tapestry?
fingerweaving (sometimes called braids)? inkle loom? i can
give you better suggestions if i know what you want to do.

At this point Im thinking serapes, blankets, rugs, and then robes and
jackets. I'm not counting on doing cotton sheets;-)
