How to Start Spinning Fiber - Yarn Spindle Tips
My best advice for folks just getting into spinning. ⬇️ 1. Try a drop spindle first, you’ll learn the fundamentals, and won’t have to invest in huge equipment like a wheel right up front. 🧶 2. Get some fiber you really like, if you want to build a habit for loving something, don’t get stuff you don’t enjoy just to practice on. 🌈 3. Congratulate yourself for trying something new, I hope it enriches your life and your practice even if it doesn’t stick. 🩵 4. (Bonus) take breaks, and listen to your body. Spinning can open up a whole new set of muscle use, be gentle with yourself. 🧵 If you want further guidance, I’ve taught multiple classes which you can access online- dm me and I’ll send you a link to whichever we decide fits your needs best. 🐑 If you’re looking for wool, I offer a month
Chain Plying Handspun Yarn on a Spinning Wheel demo
Chain plying hand spun yarn is a way of using only a single bobbin of spun yarn to create a 3 ply yarn. This is style of hand spinning creates a chain by looping the yarn through itself continuously. This takes practice but is very rhythmic as can be seen in the video. I did a live workshop in my Patreon amount with you can access by joining the Ewethful community via the link!
