Hi Benjamin, thank you for the very tranquil demonstration. Great execution. I have been reading much about fibre preparation for spinning. I have been taught how to card and now I would like to try combing. Well done.

Thank you for a wonderful and instructional video. To the point, clear and not a bunch of chitter chatter. I love calming and instructive videos. I am inspired to get out my spinning wheel.

I always wonder how to comb the wool. Thank you for sharing!

Love the kit! will have to try that one of these days!

Great stuff! You made it look so easy. My “hackle” is 2 cheapo Afro-combs clamped in a vice. I clearly need to upgrade

Супер! Спасибо! Все гениальное просто!Это лучшее из чесалок трепалок,что я видела.! Спасибо, что делитесь, спасибо за мастер класс! Обязательно сделаю себе такую игрушку.

This was relaxing to watch. I just bought my first fleece ( alpaca) .

Wow! It is a great idea to comb cotton at home! Thank you very much for video- lesson!!!

It does help - Thank you! This looks so much easier than hand carding or using a carding machine. Thanks for sharing!

Wendy Austin-Rawlings combing works best after carding actually and usually takes longer. You also get a completely different result

That looks great. Thanks for the video.

I am just entering the KZread world of home spun wool. I have spent the day watching videos on the topic (while crocheting a rain hat out of plarn).

That is incredible I am mind blownee by how you hand make roving

SALAM. It was great ! Thank ya !!

This is true. I thought the same thing and then I tried it. This is an awesome set. I love it. I'm using it for alpaca so far and it works great.

Benjamin, it was AWESOME to meet you today, at the Upper Valley Fiber Fest! I felt like I was meeting a celebrity :-) I was the girl with the Myrtlewood drop spindle, who was born in Bandon! These combs are absolutely beautiful!!! If I don't get them before then, I will at the fiber fest in Yellow Springs! Woo hoo!!

Браво!Спасибо за мастер класс.

Hi I have a question could you use this product to comb fibers instead?

I bought these from you and they are a work of art. I enjoy just looking at them and taking in their simplicity and functionality. I use them all the time and I love them...Any new products in your shop?

Скажите пожалуйста где можно приобрести эту ческу?

where did you buy the comb kit at?

Excellent

I'd like to buy one for Christmas.

So when do you dye the wool? Do you have to cook it in ashes, or lye first? (Assuming you get it straight from sheep)

I have a question. Could one spin the wool directly from the combs? Instead of making roving, could one just set up the spinning wheel or hand spindle and make the yarn?

thank u😊💖

combing was a form of torture in ancient Rome.....the victim would be drawn over the combs for wool until they died

Hello, I am wondering why not use a diz when taking the fiber off the combs? Thank you, Jamie

I would love to buy one

Also great video ,does all comps come double head

I make yarn webs and I just realized that it’s would be easier to actually time it with some stand

Thank you so much!

Congrats

Very nice.

Super démonstration

Awesome! Where do I get the kit in Kenya?

What kind of wool - fiber are you using? Is it natural or dyed? Are you still making the comb sets?

Hi Brain yes 707 is my area code i do spin very relaxing i also do weaving what do you do with the wool you spin? I ordered the combing kit a few days ago and they came today very fast shipping there very nice.

@mommymanami....the Benjamin Green wool combs can be purchased at woolcombing (dot) com. We also offer an array of fiber-related goodies to go along with your combs!

Hi. That combing kit looks very nice. How much would a setup like this take me back? Would the same set also be suitable for processing flax? (Actually I'm working with nettle fiber, but no one seems to have a clue to what I'm talking about I say flax instead, which I hear has somewhat similar properties.)

@helenbrown8572

Grunde Grimstad for flax you need more of a 'bed' of sharp pointy things. If it is a similar process to flax you also need to rett and bash the fibres before combing (sorry if you already know that bit) the last last step is combing it :)

Question: If using the combs like you do (love this technique) do I need to card the wool or can I just spin it from the roven you just did?

No need to card it. Spin it from the little nests he wound at the end.

Why does it already look partially com bed. Is there a step between drying and combing?

Est-ce votre moyen pour carder la laine ou si vous la passez à la cardeuse avant de la peigner ? Merci pour votre présentation.

Can this be done directly after the wool has been washed and dried, or does the wool need to be carded before it is combed? Thanks!

+catlover12670 It's two separate things. To get true worsted you comb and the fibers are kept lined up tip to butt (the butt being closest to the skin of the animal) as you spin. As you comb, the tips must always kept with the tips, and butts always with the butts.The resulting yard is often used to make a flat smooth woven cloth (think a worsted wool coat or pants). Semi-worsted is combed as well, but you don't worry about carefully aligning tip to butt as you spin. This yard can be woven, crocheted, or knitted and is loftier and more poofy. Carded wool is done on cards only and is spun 'long draw' method, and produces poofy airy yarn for things like scarves, hats and the like because the air pockets provide more insulation. I normally comb semi-worsted (if I don't just buy combed top roving), and spin 'short-draw'. It's sort of poofy, but doesn't have the loft of carded 'long-draw' yarn. I'm a semi-novice, so semi-worsted is easier for me. And the fleeces I got weren't even skirted properly, just pulled apart and shoved into trash bags. Well, it was free I wasn't going to argue with that. Man scouring those fleeces... Arizona sandy loose soil and lanolin equals one _flithy_ fleece. Yuk! I swear I must have removed several pounds of just plain dirt. I thought a sheep's fleece would be soft and fluffy, but their wool is stiff from lanolin and dirt! Hey, I never touched a sheep except the ones from 4-H which are kept bathed and clipped. Most people don't cover their sheep here unless they are show animals. It's hard to imagine the wool from a Suffolk sheep is really a creamy white under all that dirt (besides the leg wool, which is brown black that is). But their wool is crimpy and easy for a beginner to spin. If you've ever touched an African American's hair it has that same bouncy-soft feeling to it. It may not be the finest wool out there like Merino, but it makes up into nice hats, scarves and even nice thick slipper-socks. I don't find it itchy (except when I start to sweat), and I inhered my Grandfather's sensitive redhead skin if not the red hair itself.

catlover12670 It's quite nice, and comes in a variety of natural colors from white to black. I got black at a knitting/spinning store about an 1 1/2 away because it's hard to get a good black with dye. If you like a wide variety of dye that is easy to work with use Jacquard dye. All you need is a big stockpot (I use an enamel tamale pot) water, and vinegar. Make sure you have all the fiber you need to dye because each batch will dye different and don't tie the skeins to tight or you will get tye-dye (which is kind of pretty, but may not be what you are after (oops!) . I _have_ done tye-dyed wool skeins in the microwave, it turned out awesome! You might want a set of cheapo measuring spoons and big plastic spoon for just dye from a dollar store, you _don't_ want to use them for anything else, trust me. Yuck! I *don't* want that in my food! Jacquard only works on protein fibers though (like wool, silk and rayon), it _will not_ work on cellulose fibers (like cotton, bamboo, or hemp). I got mine from Dharma Trading (www.dharmatrading.com/) so many arts and crafts supplies in one spot and just plain good peeps. I got a pound of combed top from them, (I can't remember what breed of sheep though) but it is some high quality stuff, and spins up really nice and soft. They even have drop spindles. Really affordable price wise on their supplies too.

Did you made your kit yourself?
