Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

All about hand spinning yarn, knitting, owning a wool mill, farm life and everything in between.
In this episode we dive into Romeldale/CVM ,the sheep breed and the wool. I share wool processing videos of it from washing through carding in the wool mill. Plus I review options for storage bobbins as discussed in the comments by viewers and a follow up on some support spindle questions. Finally a quick update on some new items in the online shop.

    Hi Kim! I just got home to county Clare today, & the lambing is over. Had some sad losses, but of course also some happy outcomes, like a set of very healthy good sized triplets. There were only 2 or 3 ewes who needed help, which was great. Nice to settle in with an episode from you on my first night home 😊

    I think for the extra bobbins, if you have a Hansen e-spinner, it comes with or you buy it extra, apointed metal piece that fits into the orifice. Then you can slide a paper thing or the little plastic or wooden bobbin , take the tension off the flywheel, and wind your yarn onto it very quickly.
