- Follow along while I use the swing picker and drum carder to make roving.
To purchase a spinner's multitool, visit our Etsy shop www.etsy.com/s...
Also available on Amazon www.etsy.com/s...
Drum carder is the Elite Convertible by Clemes & Clemes clemes.com/pro...
I am cleaning the drumcarder with a hairbrush cleaner. You can find it here: amzn.to/45Qm5Gm
Swing picker is handmade. You can find plans online or purchase one from a number of woodworkers.

Watching wool get stretched out makes me happy. Weird but there is just something magical about it 💖 thank you for sharing
Beautiful fleece. I enjoyed this video.
Thank you! 😊
Ne kadar güzel bir aletmiş o.yünleri kabartıyo. Harika.
Yes, the tool is very helpful in speeding up the process.
Great relaxing video. I love the picker but I could really use a drum carder. Thanks for sharing.
Wow , my mom used to do it the old fashioned way, 👍
It’s definitely hard work!

Thanks for sharing,
Gerçekten güzel Bir aparat begendim böyle bir aparatı yspabilseydim çok işime yarardı saygılar 🇹🇷
Thanks. I don't know how to make one myself, but there are many plans online that show you how. Lots of nails and wood, mostly.
Woooowww !!!
🤗
such a relaxing video!! thank you
Just life saver🙏thank you😊
You're welcome!
Böyle bir makina veya aletim olsun isterdim. Çok begendim.
Yes the tool is really useful!
Thank you for showing me how it is done where is our Australian spinners gone..
Thank you
If I missed it I am sorry. I am interested in that blue handled tool that can pull wool out of the cloth. Can you tell me it’s name please? TYVM
Hi, it is a hairbrush cleaner. You can find it here: amzn.to/45Qm5Gm
Perfect! Thank you. I am rebuilding a motorized drum carder for my wife. I feel that tool will help when we change fibers to eliminate cross contamination. Sometimes the wool is to be purely one type.

You’re welcome! Yes, the tool works really well to clean the drum between projects. It’s well worth it!
Lovely video I have never seen a swing picker before. Where can I buy one please
Thanks! I bought mine used at a fiber festival. I have seen them listed on Etsy and Ebay. Some online fiber stores like the Woolery also carry swing pickers.
I heard about these in us history about cotton growing and wanted to see how it was made
Can a friend tell me the price of this set and where it can be bought? Help me from Pakistan
Hi, these items are not sold as a set. The drum carder is made by Clemes and Clemes, and cost approximately $1,300. The diz is made by me and costs between $16-20. It is available at www.etsy.com/shop/thefibersprite. The swing picker was purchased used, but similar ones can be found on the Internet for between $300-$900. Prices do not include shipping. Thank you!
Perhaps I missed it but what type of fiber are you preparing?
Love how relaxing this video is btw - really nice and informative 😊
Thanks! The fiber is wool, and it was marketed to me as Romeldale, but it's a little coarser, and I suspect it might be crossed with Corriedale.
Muy buena como obtener esa máquina o como hacerla
Hi! How I can order this fantastic fiber sprite? I live in Finland, spin yard of My own alpacas.
Hi, our multitools are available in the US on Etsy and Amazon. We generally don't ship internationally, since the cost of postage is as high as the tool. If you have several friends who would like to put in an order together to offset the cost of shipping, you can message us on Etsy and we'll see how we can help you. The drum carder is made by Clemes & Clemes out of California, although there are other drum carders on the market. Louet makes one that might be easier to get in Europe. The swing picker is homemade. You can find plans to build one yourself. I have also seen them for sale on Ebay from time to time. Happy spinning!
que buena explicacion grafica
May I ask what drum carder this is? I’m thinking about getting one for my felting projects. Lovely video.
Hi! This is a Clemes & Clemes carder. I really like it for its smoothness - other carders I have tried are much noisier and difficult to crank. Mine didn't come cheap, but I do feel like it was worth every penny!
@@theFiberSprite where to get ?
si venden esa máquina me gustaria comprarla responder soy del Perú -Amazonas
Vorrei trovare una cardatrice che faccia questi fogli ma almeno 60 /70 cm di larghezza ma non vorrei dei grossi macchinari che c’erano una volta mi serve x fare i fogli x le trapunte se qualcuna sa darmi informazione grazie

This is purchased from Clemes and Clemes in California, USA. It's called a drum carder and Louet makes one that might be more readily available in Europe.
Hi!!!!! I need your machine Please!!!!!!!

You can often find swing pickers on eBay. Mine was handmade with wood and nails, so that’s also an option. The drum carder I purchased through Clemes and Clemes.
