contents A $\mathbb Z_2$-harmonic spinor on a 3-manifold $Y$ is a solution of the Dirac equation on a bundle that is twisted around a submanifold $\mathcal Z$ of codimension 2 called the singular set. This article investigates the local structure of the universal moduli space of $\mathbb Z_2$-harmonic spinors over the space of parameters $(g,B)$ consisting of a metric and perturbation to the spin connection. The main result states that near a $\mathbb Z_2$-harmonic spinor with $\mathcal Z$ smooth, the universal moduli space projects to a codimension 1 submanifold in the space of parameters. The analysis is complicated by the presence of an infinite-dimensional obstruction bundle and a loss of regularity in the first variation of the Dirac operator with respect to deformations of the singular set $\mathcal Z$, necessitating the use of the Nash-Moser Implicit Function Theorem.
