Just a thought for future shows/fiber fests: My first drop spindle was in a beginner's kit. It came with three 1 oz bundles of clean, carded Cotswold. One natural, two dyed. Cotswold is perfect for beginners because it's so easy to spin. If you make your own spindles, you could put together beginners' kits to sell. There are directions all over the web for making drop spindles.

We do that with some of what we call junk wool ... a friend gave it to us and we use it to teach 4-H kids how to make drop spindles out of dowel rods and old cds. Then we give them some of that wool and it spins easy for them. It sticks together really well. We only have three cotswold so we sell our roving by 2 oz balls
