Texas Fiber Gathering: Crap in, crap out?
Texas Fiber Gathering, EP. 1: crap in , crap out? But is it really crap? What I see as gold, others see as straw, but isn’t it my job as your mill to turn straw into gold? And I will own it. If I see that it’s not possible to take it to yarn or I might need to add something to make it sturdier or sexier, then I’m going to tell you so but I’ve dealt with some pretty strange fibers in the last 15 years of my life as a Spinner. And part of the challenge I feel I need to take on is to find ways to make everything that we produce as usable as possible. Not everything has to be compost.#artisanmill #shepherdsmill #fibershed #followthesheepwalk #texasfibergathering #belfastminimills #heritagewool #sheepwool

Mill Chatter: Testing what we create
มุมมอง 50วันที่ผ่านมา
Sample making is really important because it allows us to gauge our progress! We’ve made it to 1 year and saw expansion. Now it’s what we do that makes a difference. #texasshepherdsmill #farmlife #followthesheepwalk #texasfibergathering #fibershed
Fiber Mill Gathering: Chimayo, part 1
มุมมอง 41หลายเดือนก่อน
In the next months I am going to continue to tell the story of the Chimayo weavers through our mill experience. We have sourced Navajo Churro, but it means a lot to me to make this wool accessible once again to our weavers in New Mexico. The cost per pound is based on an upscale market and not realistic for the artists who continue the tradition of the Chimayo style of weaving. I hope you will ...
Knitting Ladderback Jacquard Flat
มุมมอง 851ปีที่แล้ว
I have tried to answer the questions that may occur with knitting ladderback jacquard on a flat project (versus in the round). There are some issues with knitting flat that you can turn a blind eye to with in the round, such as, how the loops need to hang, avoiding twisting, how to carry the yarn and so on.

This is a supplement to the written pattern Plant A Seed, designed for Texas Wool Week 2023. We use the ladderback jacquard method on the petals of the hat to maintain a stretchy fabric.

How to know you are hooking with even tension. When to go freeform and why.
Dye for the Sky
มุมมอง 754 ปีที่แล้ว
This is an introduction to dying for fabric. The biggest issue we have is not understanding how color can work for your project. We see awesome hand dyed, but how can you make it work for appliqué or hooking. The sky is the most mysterious because too much and you have a feisty sky. Too little and you have to dress it up or assume it is Winter. I hope this helps get your imagination going.

This video was made specifically to support my design The Little Flower which was one of my first free form rug hooking projects great for entry level rug hooking. This project uses circles, shaping, and enough straight lines to get your hooking gauge. Part 3 of a three part video. www.suzooswoolworks.com for kit

Getting around the petal on The Little Flower
Thank you! I purchased a "crap" fleece that was allegidly only good for mulch. Has a good staple length and my sample washed up white. I am not seeing the crap other than what a sheep naturally does as it lives in its own wool.
❤HELLO❤İSTANBUL🇹🇷 TURKEY❤👋👋👋🌹🌹🌹🎄🎄
Greetings from sunny Southern California. I am looking forward more videos from you. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
🙏😇7 God bless her for taking something that would be thrown out and turn it into a great product❤
What a lovely intention. Wish there were more like you.❤ I hope you are able to spread your wool joy throughout the world!
Can’t thank you enough. Great video ❤wish there was a 2nd part … how to weave .
Thank you for sharing this! I was frustrated I couldn’t find anyone else demonstrating this technique Flat! 🙏
Wow you just gave me hope my left side is weak due to a stroke and I want to learn to weave, I loom knit a bit it helps to strengthen my fingers I think weaving will help also.
I always find it so cute how happy sheep get after being sheared, Id be happy and skipping around too if someone took a 30lb wool coat off me.
Thank you! I'm trying to figure out how to do ladder back jacquard flat in rib stitch 😳
me too!
Someone told me sheep jump and play around like lambs after shearing. I just had to see for myself.😂🥰
This is so helpful!! Took me a while to find one specifically for weaving. Thanks so much!
You cant just sheer them🤦♀️ they will have cold
What if it's hot?
Many wild animals have winter fur that they naturally build up in autumn and shed in springtime. Sheep were bred by men to not shed, so they keep growing their wool all year round. Their wool are very insulating and trap heat very effectively - if they are not sheared there is a chance a sheep can have a heatstroke if the climate becomes too warm for her fur.
@@rafaelfarias4359 many breeds can shed without shearing! Hair sheep or shedding sheep and mix hair/wool : Dorper, Katahdin, Nolana, Barbados, Muflon, Kamerun, st Croix, Wiltshire Horn, Soay, Shetland, Romanov, Lacaune, Charolais.
@@MrDelongeee182 indeed.
Thank you!!! I learned several different ways of doing things.
I also have the same feeling after a hair cut.
Thank you! I am just starting to weave but can only use one of my hands, I'm determined to make it work!
Don't let anything hold you back. Weaving is loads of fun and with practice you can make it work. I might recommend a belt with a keychain doodad (can't think of what it is called!!!) so that you can use a pulley system so that your stronger hand can do the work.
@@followthesheepwalk Thanks for the encouragement!! I'll look into it!
you all prolly dont give a damn but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Ashton Alfonso Instablaster :)
@Keith Emilio I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
here before this goes viral 😎
I'm leave traces here until this video becomes a recommendation for everyone
This video was helpful in many ways, but I'm still confused about the holes and the slots. Camera angle was not helpful at that stage.
I am so late in responding. You will see on the reed the holes and then the longer openings. It is easier to run the yarns though the holes when you are warping the loom.Then when you are ready to separate the threads you can pull out one an the other is less likely to jump out as well. I hope you found the answer long before this one.
@@followthesheepwalk I did, but thanks for replying.
Awesome! Love the colours. Thank you for the tutorial, clear video and details.
Awww; they are playing.... how cute !!!!!
Yes the sheep are good girls
Greetings! Love love love your yarns. The dye; colour ways and yarns are very beautiful. I have lots of compliments from knitting with your yarns. I definitely will drop in when I am back to Bandera. Look forward to your future videos.
They are so cute; thank you for sharing...
