Your videos are so fantastic, I cannot BELIEVE you still have so few viewers compared to others I follow whose content is not nearly as peaceful and interesting as yours... I know you are not doing this for 'numbers' but I pray you will get a larger viewership in the coming year, as others really should know you and benefit from what you show us. THANK YOU for sharing your journey with us. Those of us who follow you truly appreciate your poetic nature that comes through in all you do. ♥
Debbi from Cincinnati here~. I have fallen down a rabbit hole and am so glad I did. I have watched all of your videos, even the ‘shorts’ which usually annoy me but I have enjoyed them all. Now I have almost watched all of your content and cannot binge anymore and therefore must be patient until you drop your next video. * sigh*. I have a request, would you do a tutorial on box covering? They are gorgeous! Also, regarding making mistakes, the Navajo (Nav-a-ho) Native Americans of the Southwestern USA are master weavers. They believe that only God is perfect and are comfortable making mistakes in their Art.
Love this channel 🤍 it’s like going back into history. When people lived a simple healthy life. The tree hugging and appreciating the soul of the forest was really endearing too. It makes me want to learn how to knit and have a simple life and be happier. Very relaxing channel, this might be my new favourite, thank you 🤍
Beautiful. I see that your life itself is a contemplative practice. Hand-spinning, weaving, knitting are wonderful, useful traditional skills that have enhanced my life for many years. I’m so glad to see you creating your own lovely handmade things. I’ve subscribed! Blessings to you and your home, from mine in the Pacific Northwest of America. ❤
i too am a hand spinner, weaver, fibre artist, creator.....all the things... i believe handmade things have a soul to them. the maker imbues life and love into the item during it's creation. nothing machine made can compare to the preciousness of something handmade. i love when i can see the 'imperfections' in a piece. it makes the piece all the more unique and beautiful (amwabi sabi aesthetic). beautiful content. so glad i found your channel.
when you join two strands of yarn together. it's called worsted i believe. or twining, two stranded twining. you want to spin them into yarn independently (as you did) then twist both strands separately and then let them wrap around each other as you connect them. this can be done by laying them over your right leg parallel like railroad tracks press your right hand on top and push down your leg. then using your left handhold the pair now a twined strand and guide the process. this method is great because it tares the hair out of your leg, slowly ;) it's exactly the same as making rope. I saw someone make a gadget for this using two spindles spun together but forget how to build one. Im sure some on youtube can show you how. The way you did it is far weaker, hence the explanation... good luck. just did two frying pans last month... yours was in fantastic shape by comparison. now there better than new :)
it does take a while to spin enough for a jumper...........i recommend a spinning wheel though..........it makes it easier and its quicker once you get the hang of it and its so much fun
putting thoughts of care and good energy into something can possibly impower the thing with some form of importance kind of making it magic some how maybe xxx
Loving your channel sooooo much!❤ In New Mexico USA the native Dine people (The Navajo) tribe spins yarn with a spindle to create beautiful Navajo Rugs. By federal law only the Navajo can call and sell rugs that are Navajo Rugs. When there is an imperfection in the weave it is called " a spirit line". This is the google definition: The Navajo refer to imperfections in their weavings as a "spirit line" because they believe that when weaving, a part of the weaver's spirit gets intertwined with the fabric, and the "spirit line" acts as a pathway for that spirit to safely exit the weaving, preventing them from being trapped within the creation; essentially signifying that no human can achieve absolute perfection and acknowledging the weaver's connection to the piece. It is nice to spin with a drop spindle. You might consider a kick spindle or a mother marion spindle that is less than a spinning wheel and has the same idea as a drop spindle, but allowing both hands to manipulate the yarn. Namaste Farms shows how to prepare yarn after spinning, this is how I learned to beat my yarn and hang it after spinning. There are also some really nice carding boards that allow you to create rolags ( little rolls right off the board) to spin easier. It will not take up the space of a drum carder, but allows you to mix fibers. A little wool, a little cat hair, a little alpaca, etc. It will bring another dimension to your weaving, knitting, and fiber art. I cant wait to see the recipe for the Rum Christmas Chocolates! Yum! ❤

I would like to get one! Wanted to experience the pace of hand spinning first though

This was absolutely gorgeous through and through. Your videos are my safe space. Thank you so much for making them!
Really beautiful filming! Very seasonal.
I love that you’re making a sweater which I think is perfect and was smiling all the way through❤
Solid Kate Bush impression there, very wuthering.
Haha oh I do love Kate Bush! 😆
Beautifully made video ❤ inspiring me to spin my own yarn!
The bars look good! The chocolate dip looks like a potential hassle (does it have to be tempered?), but overall they look pretty simple to make.
I did not temper it, wasn't shiny but worked fine otherwise! 😊
Saludos desde Patagonia Argentina. You qre beautifull
👍👌
❤❤❤
oh no - - - the green pan was so much prettier then the black!
Ok, it's official, we need to be friends.
Yes I would love that! 😊

You remind me of a faerie.
Your tin is lined with plastic. There is now microplastic in your end product.
What tin?
If you mean what she put the wax and coconut oil in, it looked like wax paper to me. which is paraffin. still petroleum but not plastic.
Loving your channel sooooo much!❤
