unrelated to the actual topic but that red eyeshadow really brings out the gorgeous color of your eyes! but we already knew you are good at picking colors so no surprise there :)
I know this video was a while ago, but I'm just finding it now! And I'm in awe!! This is exactly what I was looking for, and you explained it so well!! Thank you!!!
Thanks for explaining the fractal technique with such great words AND visual. I totally get it now!🥰 You obviously get it, too, as perfectly as your bobbins lined up😃
Hi Evie, hope youre all ok. Love, love your Fractal Yarn. The colours are so jewel like . Not sure I'll ever be so good. But live in hope. Happy Spinning. Take care & stay safe. Lots of love Jenxxxx You only popped up on my feed this afternoon. Xxx.
What a beautiful yarn evie and how are you enjoying your e spinner I really want a small mini one for travelling or when we are allowed to again sit in a cafe and spin while having a coffee and a chat with friends one day it will happen x
First..gorgeous! Second…I’m confused. You divided…. Never mind,.,. I went back and watched again. (I missed something vital). So the beginning and ends of this skein are close in color and the center areas start to mix … that is so cool. Thank you!
That result IS perfection I just got into working with fiber a year ago- store-bought acrylic to crochet with, but seeing what you've done here with roving is making me think it's time to play with other fibers and make my own yarn, one day.
You're correct!! That is just perfect!! So lovely, and love the new spinner. Colours are so rich, and the colour shifts are just beautiful. Thanks for showing this and giving us all inspiration and confidence to try new things 😊💖🙏🏻
my fave thing about that spinner is that the jumbo bobbins are standard. it is almost magic how much they can hold. i packed two bobbins with singles and ended up with enough 2-ply yarn for a whole sweater. editing to add... that finished yarn is GORGEOUS! you are seriously tempting me to do a fractal spin, but i have to get through a couple fleeces worth of fiber first.
Wow, that really is perfection! I´ve been meaning to try a bit of fractal spinning but until this excellent explanation of how to actually do it, it´s been a little scary. Thank you for the push and the enthusiasm!
This is great! I have so much trouble with fractals, but that’s because I keep splitting it. I should probably practice it this way a couple times to get the hang of it!
Beautiful yarn! I’ve would have not thought of that combo! Now I need to look at my favorite roving/braids and think differently! As for your bobbins ending the ply with less than a yard you are just that good!
Your hair looks awesome btw. I mean the yarn is incredible too, but also your hair. I'm a knitter and love watching you spin and create yarn, because it's such a mystery to me. However, the knitter inside me is like I NEED TO SEE IT AS A FABRIC. This feels like the biggest cliffhanger because the yarn looks so so good, but what sort of fabric will it make???
This is a great video! The roving collection for the end of the year is such a great idea, im totally going to do it. I wanted to spin a gradient from a couple braids and wasnt sure how to do it, so this helped so much. Thank you
Just found you, just subscribed and wondering what did you do with that "amazing" yarn! Thank you for helping me figure out what to do with beautiful braid of my own.
Thanks for your great channel. I tried to do the fractal spinning and 2 of the thinner lengths spun up evenly but the thicker one was much longer and didn’t get the color repeats before I ran out of the thinner ones when plying. Any suggestions? Keep up the great work!
You must love your e-spinner! Your yarn looks so beautiful and having both bobbins end at the same time is your specialty lol. How many hours did it take you to spin up all the singles?
Evie it's so gorgeous! Do you ever do 3 or 4 ply? I want to make sock yarn & I'm told 4 ply is best for durability. That would be some skinny singles wouldn't it? I'm very new to spinning but I want to make what I like to use most ... fingerings sock or lace weights. Maybe I need lessons?
Yes, those are very skinny singles! If you want more tutorials and/or lessons and access to a monthly Zoom call check out my Patreon. Http://www.patreon.com/jillianeve
How do you make sure your getting the right color, I think when I'm drafting I end up pulling from farther down in the color than I want. Any types to make sure the colors draft more orderly?
I have a lot of physical issues especially in my knee, hips, lower back, and neck. Spring time is usually pretty painful as the weather changes. This way I can keep spinning! I'm not quitting my spindles or treadle wheels. I'm just growing the flock. 😊🐑💜🧶
This is perfect timing as I was just thinking about how to make a stripey yarn without having to spin super thin to chain ply since it needs to be fingering weight. So the idea is to just spin two singles and do a 2 ply? How would you recommend going about it for hand spinning since I don't have bobbins from which I could ply?
Woohoo! Only another spinner knows the excitement of two bobbins matching up! Beautiful yarn! I’m learning so much from you!
Absolutely beautiful! I want to spin just like you when l grow up. (I am already 70. When does a spinner grow up?)
Never 😉💜🧶
@@JillianEve Right on Sister!
🤭@@tracysmith7935
Spin more of it and make a sweater or vest. It's absolutely beautiful yarn very nicely spun.
unrelated to the actual topic but that red eyeshadow really brings out the gorgeous color of your eyes! but we already knew you are good at picking colors so no surprise there :)
Honestly, I just want to buy this fiber so that I can do a fractal like this and then knit it in a fair isle yolk sweater with a charcoal grey.
It’s so wonderful when you bobbins end so close 🥰
The best! 😄
Wow!
Wow! That's awesome! The way you stepped everything out makes this seem doable! totally going to try this.
I know this video was a while ago, but I'm just finding it now! And I'm in awe!! This is exactly what I was looking for, and you explained it so well!! Thank you!!!
"And it's perfection!" Omg you're adorable Evie! Your enthusiasm is definitely contagious, so thank you for spreading your joy 🤗
Thanks for explaining the fractal technique with such great words AND visual. I totally get it now!🥰 You obviously get it, too, as perfectly as your bobbins lined up😃
I'm so glad the visual helped! It's a fun technique that's for sure! 💜🧶🐑😊
Hi Evie, hope youre all ok.
Love, love your Fractal Yarn. The colours are so jewel like .
Not sure I'll ever be so good. But live in hope.
Happy Spinning.
Take care & stay safe.
Lots of love Jenxxxx
You only popped up on my feed this afternoon. Xxx.
Just keep practicing! You'll get there!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜🧶
i love using those kinds of gradients as the contrast in color work. instant rainbows for the win! :D
Ahhh that feeling when a plan comes together perfectly. Your excitement is contagious. It is absolutely beautiful yarn. 👌💕
Oh I love it when my bobbins are so close like that!!!! It’s like a special kick ass kind of feeling 😂 beautiful yarn!!!
It totally is! Thank you! 💜🧶🐑😊
That came out beautiful!
Thank you! 😊
So pretty
Congrats on the awesome plying out come. It's not an accident. You have put in the time and practice.
Thank you! 🥰
You nailed it 🎉👍👍👍🌈
Wow, it's gorgeous! Im always getting husband and dog hair in my spins!
What a beautiful yarn evie and how are you enjoying your e spinner I really want a small mini one for travelling or when we are allowed to again sit in a cafe and spin while having a coffee and a chat with friends one day it will happen x
Yes, some day! I'm enjoying it a lot! I'll have a video on it soon. I wanted to get a good sense of it first though. 💜🧶🐑😊
Thank you thank you I am new you are a wonderful teacher.
You are so welcome, happy spinning! 💜🐑🧶
Melissa of Wild Hare is a wiz with vibrant colors!
100%!!!
I just got so excited like your dog!
I am so glad I discovered your videos! I put them on and watch them while I crochet. Also I know this is an old video but your hair in this one is 💯💯💯
Daaaaaang, that turned out super pretty!
Beautiful colors! Make a Shaw.
A shawl would be lovely!
This is what I need to know!!😀👍
First..gorgeous! Second…I’m confused. You divided…. Never mind,.,. I went back and watched again. (I missed something vital). So the beginning and ends of this skein are close in color and the center areas start to mix … that is so cool. Thank you!
Yep! 😊💖🧶
What lovely yarn and a great idea! Im still a beginner but I can only spin so many barber pole 2 plys 😅
I feel like those barber pole 2-plys hit different when the color shifts are intentional. I hope you got some inspiration! 💜🧶🐑😊
That is gorgeous yarn!! Wow...
This yarn has me vibrating with happiness!
That yarn came out so stinking amazing! And only a teeny bit of length different 🤯
I'm still amazed that happened! 💜🧶🐑😊
Wow impressive plying!! That almost never happens in real life🤣Wonderful yarn!
Very pretty!
Thank you!
I got so excited when I saw that you also do short drafts with your left hand, I do that too! :D
Oh my I’m jealous. You got your e-spinner. I’ve been waiting or going on 4 months. Yes, I’m impatient. The yarn is beautiful 😻.
I completely lucked out because my LYS had one in stock!
Jillian, that was the best fractal spin I've seen yet. That skein is gorgeous!
Thank you! It was so much fun!
PERFECTION indeed ❤️❤️❤️✨ 😁
That is gorgeous!
Wowzers....nice job on equally spinning the bobbins! Gorgeous work.
Thank you!
That is gorgeous! 😱😍
Beautiful yarn
This is absolute fun 🤩
Gorgeous colors!
Wow! It encourages me to give it a try! ❤️
Wow the bobbins came out so close! It is gorgeous!!! As someone with too many projects going on I agree you can never have too many projects!
Beautiful!
That was very creative
That result IS perfection I just got into working with fiber a year ago- store-bought acrylic to crochet with, but seeing what you've done here with roving is making me think it's time to play with other fibers and make my own yarn, one day.
It came out SO GOOD! I'd pay top dollar for sure. You're awesome at what you do, thank you so much for sharing!!
Those colors are scrumptious, beautiful the way it turned out
Wow such beautiful colors, and the two braids went together just perfectly!
You're correct!! That is just perfect!! So lovely, and love the new spinner. Colours are so rich, and the colour shifts are just beautiful. Thanks for showing this and giving us all inspiration and confidence to try new things 😊💖🙏🏻
Yay! 💜🧶🐑😊
Wow- absolutely gorgeous!!
Very lovely yarn! And I love the way you let your enthusiasm show, it's contagious! :-) Thank you for a great tutorial
You are adorable and that yarn is fabulous! Great work girl!
Thank you got me into spining
Awesome! Do you love it? 💜🧶🐑😊
this yarn is absolutely gorgeous.
Love to see the project you used this yarn for. It is perfection!
Wow!! So pretty :)
What a gorgeous finished yarn! Fractals are so much fun. I've never come that close with my plies, great job!
Thank you! Keep spinning and it will happen some day! 😉💖🧶
That is really beautiful!
Thank you for this explanation. I am going to try this with a braid I have. I have been searching for this info everywhere btw. ❤😊
my fave thing about that spinner is that the jumbo bobbins are standard. it is almost magic how much they can hold. i packed two bobbins with singles and ended up with enough 2-ply yarn for a whole sweater. editing to add... that finished yarn is GORGEOUS! you are seriously tempting me to do a fractal spin, but i have to get through a couple fleeces worth of fiber first.
You are so right about the bobbin capacity! 💜🧶🐑😊
I love the colours!!!
Thank you!
😍 I LOVE IT !!
I feel so inspired! So glad I found your channel :) Thank you!

Your talent continues to inspire me! I blame you for my fall into the spinning rabbit hole! 😄 - Michele
This is great! I have so much trouble with fractals, but that’s because I keep splitting it. I should probably practice it this way a couple times to get the hang of it!
I feel like the 1/2 + 1/4 1/4 split makes a big color impact. Happy spinning! 💜🧶🐑😊
this video was posted on my birthday!
Wow so Cool county on learning that plying!
Thank you, so awesome that I can inspire to do some spinning!!
Awesome! Happy spinning! 💜🧶🐑😊
So lovely. Very creative of how you merged the two different braids together. Love it.
Bravo! Beautiful!
Thanks!
So amazing!!!!!! I need to try this!!
Oh my gosh, it is gorgeous. I love it. Great job!!!
Thank you!
Beautiful yarn! I’ve would have not thought of that combo! Now I need to look at my favorite roving/braids and think differently! As for your bobbins ending the ply with less than a yard you are just that good!
Rearranging colors opens up endless possibilities! 💜🧶🐑😊

I love this! The colors are so beautiful. I was getting excited at the same time. 😊
That's just beautiful!

Beautiful yarn! ❤️
Thank you!
That came out awesome, I love it!
Have you made anything with this yet?? It is GORGEOUS!!
I need to! I keep looking at it! Any suggestions?
Maybe a shawl or a scarf
Just found you, just subscribed and wondering what did you do with that "amazing" yarn! Thank you for helping me figure out what to do with beautiful braid of my own.
This is truly lovely yarn!!
Thank you Evie, this was very educational, I really didn't understand what a "fractal" yarn was, great explanation!
Glad it was helpful!
This is so cool!! Absolutely love the colors and how you explain why you are doing what you do with the fluff
Congratulations on your new ashford espinner3. The yarn is beautiful. May you make whatever makes your heart sing.
Thanks for your great channel. I tried to do the fractal spinning and 2 of the thinner lengths spun up evenly but the thicker one was much longer and didn’t get the color repeats before I ran out of the thinner ones when plying. Any suggestions? Keep up the great work!
What did you end up using this yarn for? I would love to see how it looks knitted up!
You must love your e-spinner! Your yarn looks so beautiful and having both bobbins end at the same time is your specialty lol. How many hours did it take you to spin up all the singles?
I really need to start tracking my time. I homeschool my kids and read while I spin and before I know it, my bobbins are full!
Evie it's so gorgeous! Do you ever do 3 or 4 ply? I want to make sock yarn & I'm told 4 ply is best for durability. That would be some skinny singles wouldn't it? I'm very new to spinning but I want to make what I like to use most ... fingerings sock or lace weights. Maybe I need lessons?
Yes, those are very skinny singles! If you want more tutorials and/or lessons and access to a monthly Zoom call check out my Patreon. Http://www.patreon.com/jillianeve

BEAUTIFUL!!!🌷💖🌷ОЧЕНЬ КРАСИВО СО ВКУСОМ!!!🌷💖🌷
How do you make sure your getting the right color, I think when I'm drafting I end up pulling from farther down in the color than I want. Any types to make sure the colors draft more orderly?
That E-spinner is interesting😍 Why did you go from the antiques to the ultra modern⁉️🤔
💜💙💚💛🧡❤
I have a lot of physical issues especially in my knee, hips, lower back, and neck. Spring time is usually pretty painful as the weather changes. This way I can keep spinning! I'm not quitting my spindles or treadle wheels. I'm just growing the flock. 😊🐑💜🧶
This is perfect timing as I was just thinking about how to make a stripey yarn without having to spin super thin to chain ply since it needs to be fingering weight. So the idea is to just spin two singles and do a 2 ply? How would you recommend going about it for hand spinning since I don't have bobbins from which I could ply?
Before I got more bobbins, I would wind the yarn onto paper towel tubes. You could also use a ball winder. 😊💜🧶
@@JillianEve Ah touche! Thank you
