This saved me from tossing some raw alpaca in the bin! I ordered some fine toothed hand cards and am ready to make the fiber all fluffy and perfect for spinning!
I enjoyed watching you spin from the card-except for the Russian combs, it is the first time that I have seen this done. I also enjoyed your story of the spinning shepherdess wrapping the wool from their full spindle around stones and other found objects and bringing these hidden memories of the countryside back to the old women in the village who ply the wool from the balls and discover these offerings. ( By the way, you have a lovely accent!)
Lovely thank you I am spinning black Suri while I watch this, and just last week I found a green plastic glow in the dark Jack that was one of my kids from years ago inside a ball of yarn so glad I am not alone in using what is at hand to start winding a ball lol : )
Thank you so much for watching and sharing your story 🙏imagine if you didn't use the yarn for a year or so and found that treasure afterwards 🤔😁that would be fun!! Thank you and enjoy your spinning 😘🙏always appreciate watching and commenting!!!
Mary Hutson it is the best thing ever ! I still love it and use it all the time! Thanks for leaving a comment I hope you get your e spinner soon! Xxx Jolanda
Wat ontzettend leuk om te zien hoe je dit doet! Misschien ga ik de vulling voor de waldorfpoppen die ik maak ook eens kaarden, het lijkt veel efficiënter dan het handmatige pluizen. Wat is het leuk om naar je te luisteren, je geeft zoveel goede (en ook onderhoudende) informatie tussendoor!
wat ontzettend lief van je ! De kaarden zijn niet zo heel erg duur dus misschien het proberen waard ! wat leuk dat je poppen maakt ik heb het net even opgezocht maar die zijn echt heel erg mooi !!! xxx Jolanda
I went like 'I havent seen this one yet' and with in te first two sentences i went like 'I know that accent. ANOTHER DUCHTY' Mooie video, goed gedaan :)
Such a nice video. I appreciate your showing us what you do. What is the brand of the machine and cards, I couldn't catch exactly what the name was. Thank you!
I just learned today that I can get a fleece next Saturday for free. I will clean and process it all by myself. I've never done this before and I'm jumping in "cold turkey." Can you advise me? I plan on looking at some videos to learn as much as I can. I don't know what supplies or equipment will be needed. It is mixed breed; the owner just purchases sheep without knowing what breed and they reproduce on their own. I will purchase an e-spinner later.
Mary Hutson knitting the stash has a great tutorial on how to wash fleece ! Then you have to decide if you want to card or comb and then you can start spinning ! It is a lot of hard work but I loved every part of it ! Have fun I can remember buyi g my first fleece I was so exited !!! Good luck xxxx Jolanda
Fluff? Is that the technical term for fiber? Because after six years in college getting my fiber arts degree and my fiber science degree, they never told me that.

Beagle Lover hi thanks for taking the time to leave a messaage! The cards and the wheel are from ashford.xxx Jolanda

Thank you so much 🙏🏻enjoy your spinning 🌹
Nou dit is een leuk idëe! Moet ik proberen.
Dank je wel voor je reactie ! Veel plezier toegewenst
What happens if the yarn breaks while spinning??
You pull back the broken yarn a bit and hold the fiber close to the yarn it will grab the yarn while spinning and there is an invisible join
I can't pronounce where you're from nor do I know what you said, but thank you.
You are welcome
My name is Ilona from Ukraine! :)
Welcome and thanks for leaving a message! X Jolanda
This looks like it could be done with husky hair.
Yes you could ! Also Persian cat hair is ! Xx

Tangan yang trampil bisa selembut itu bulunya hanya dengan alat seperti pemarut kelapa.
Yes I can imagine it can be done like that 🙏 thank you for watching and sharing 🌹
