It’s time for another quick look at some of the specialty threads in the Tower.
Spinning

One of the main Ravelry crafts allowed in the Cup, spinning is a popular craft with many adherents. Like other yarn arts, it's also a bit of a black hole with a fairly steep learning curve. Our Tower spinning specialist thread is home to wheel spinners, spindle spinners, fluff enthusiasts and anyone interested in learning more about this ancient art form. Whether you're looking for help from fellow spinners, or want to dip your toe into the spinning pool, this specialist study thread is your place to go.
The Tower Gym
This term's Headmistress Challenge is focused on bettering, and our own Head of House has declared a desire for us to work towards self-care. For many people, self-care and bettering can include efforts to exercise more and eat better. The Tower Gym specialist study thread is the ideal location for anyone looking for an exercise accountability buddy, healthy eating tips/recipes or general information on nutrition. Those that frequent this thread post workout tips, discuss training programs and generally offer support for one another. It's a great place to check out if your goal includes improving in any one of these areas.
Charity Crafting - 'Claws for a Cause
Yarn crafters are a generous bunch, and members of the 'Cup are no different. While many of us began crafting primarily to make items for friends and family, most of us use our skills to craft for charities near and dear to our hearts. This specialist study thread is the place to go in the Tower to discuss charity crafting patterns, causes and to share your latest charity project. Whether you want to find a good pattern to use for charity donations, want to talk about your favorite cause or just have something to share, visit here. Don't forget: they have badges!
I hope you're enjoying this tour of the Specialist Studies in the Tower. We have plenty more to highlight, so I'll be back soon with info about others to visit.
