Spin this Yarn ~ Episode 1

This is the first in a new weekly spinning series. This in not meant to be a fully informational tutorial but rather somewhere between tutorial and spin along. I apologize for the crappy indoor lighting, I hope to improve on that in the next video. Questions are best directed to Instagram or Facebook (linked below) for quick response, but I will try to check here regularly now that I am back to...
Spinning a Corespun Yarn with a Tencel Core
Просмотров 9 тыс.9 лет назад
You don't have to use a grabby fiber to spin an awesome corespun yarn. Here I demonstrate using tencel weaving thread, my favorite choice for corespinning, to make thick corespun, thin corespun, tailspun and lockspun corespun, and using batts, top, or cloud as well. Visit me on facebook at: mirla.fiberarts on etsy at: www.etsy.com/shop/MIRLAFiberArts?ref=hdr_shop_menu Or look for M...

Spinning Fine Singles from the Lock
Просмотров 13 тыс.10 лет назад
Note: if the music bothers you then don't watch the video. It is free content and rude comments are completely unnecessary. In this video I show how to pull locks from a hand dyed fleece and spin them directly from the lock into a fine single. This will eventually be plied into sock yarn and hand knit into some comfy winter socks! Spinning Wheel: Schacht Sidekick Music: "You Can't Hide" by And ...

Spinning Beaded Thick and Thin Yarn
Просмотров 7 тыс.10 лет назад
My technique for how to add beads into a thick and thin directly. Got distracted...after soaking in REALLY hot water, dunk it in COLD water for the fulling! Visit my shop at www.mirlafiberarts.etsy.com or on facebook at mirla.fiberarts
Awesome
Great video you explain everything so detailed. Can carding be done in place of using the combs like your show in the video or do you have to do both ? I am a newbie trying to learn before I buy any equipment
I like your preferred method it seems to do the top of the line job and looks the best for the spinning process. Great channel I love you get to the point and show what the videos about, Beautiful little Princess I see in the video
Beautiful , I'm a newbie at spinning what do you do to set yarn I hear this a lot in videos but I'm trying to learn as much as I can so when I start spinning I have and idea what I'm doing
Love love love!! I don’t usually go this big simply because I like my fiber to last me a bit longer since spinning is my favorite part of the craft and I don’t have limitless budget but I am going to try a smaller coil soon and it was so nice to get a quick refresh! Gorgeous batt and beautiful end product! Thanks again!
Is there a way to get the printed instructions
Tencel as a core? Slippery. Glad you made this video :D
Thank you for making this video!! I am spinning something similar for the first time, and this answered a lot of my questions:)
Whaaat, I’m definitely going to try this tomorrow. I spin supercoils a lot but have been having some trouble doing consistent spirals especially with a thick and thin. Thank you. I’m very curious to see if I can make it work for me.
Love all of your videos, clear tips and clear discussion of process. Please make more when you can
Thank you! What a great educational video!! New to spinning. I love your explanation and how easy you make it look ! Greetings from Fort Lauderdale, FL
Hi. How much yarn is needed? I have some worsted weight and I imagine that will work with the right sized needles to get the gauge right. I'd like to knit this for my adult son. Please let me know the amount of yarn needed. Thank you!
Hello, thank you for this video! I love to watch how beautiful yarn is created. I welcome them to distant Russia)))
Super helpful video! Also gorgeous yarn 😍 do you wet/steam set your corespun before you coilspin it? Or can you coil it straight off the bobbin?
Great upload!!! 👏🆒😉 I dropped a huge 👍 for ya friend 🌸🤝.
This is super gorgeous! Thank you for sharing this process, very inspiring 😊
Such a great video, can't wait to try this!
Really appreciated this video, been playing with these big loose chunky coils and can't seem to get the right balance with it, it was so nice watching you spin (and also fight with your hooks during the ply! haha been there!)
The finished product is exquisite. But.... what do you knit out of it? I’d really like to see a pic of a finished knitted project. Or, do you just keep it displayed as an “objet d’art”?
Thanks this was so informative
Thank you so much for your s and z explanation, I never understood why it was called those terms and that’s a helpful way to remember
That sidekick looks like so much fun!
I just made an old "walking wheel" style spinning wheel out of a bike. I took the rear wheel off and inserted a 36cm double pointed needle through the frame drive band on front wheel to rear needle which I taped and wrapped in some twine for the drive band to be gripped. I want to mount it on the wall so I can walk instead of this 'rowing' I've been doing on the floor... can this beautiful yarn be done on my knockoff? :)
Thank you. This was incredibly helpful.
Thanks for making this video. I have conquered coilspinning now!!! :)
Thank you. Good video.
I love this video. It’s super clear and you give great tips. I’ve come back to watch a few times!!
Nicely done. Thanks!
THANK YOU for NOT covering your commentary with useless music.
Beautiful 😻
Thank you so much for sharing, this was beautiful!!
What do you use for the core and plying?
Candie necklaces!
Please explain what you mean. I’m genuinely puzzled. And, thank you.
Thank you for sharing your video. Really pretty yarn, and vegan too. I just found your channel. Hope you're staying healthy during the pandemic and wishing you the best 💕
Very informative thank you
Just curious what size whorl you normally use for this technique. Thanks! (Love your videos btw!)
Excellent video! Thank you. You should make more.
Thank you thank you thank you!!! And please make more.
Your yarns are beautiful can't wait till I can spin this good xx thanks for the tips and I love how the little ones get to be part of it all too x
Thank you. You gave me the final steps and technique i was missing. Now to go practise! Appreciate your video.
Oh my God! I love you so hard right now! Thank you!
Hello, what core did you use here?
A Flatiron was my first Schacht wheel and I LOVE it, and she got a little sister Sidekick very quickly
I've been following you for years on Instagram, I'm not much of one for art yarn, but I really enjoyed watching your process on this
Excellent video.
Great vid! I bought little hand carders a while ago have been hesitant to try them... this was a really simple and clear demo!
Finally! Someone else who spins the way I do. I spin almost all my fleeces like this. Thanks for sharing.
Hello How are you? Loved multitasking. Kid and yarn both are so beautiful 😍 Would be interested in working on this technique and probably do a trade with you. You can mail me at aroraapoorva91@gmail.com or WhatsApp at +91 8108699389
Love your music!
What if you put a thick straw in along the hooks? Thick enough for the beads to go through 🤔
You could use a different length piece to go to each hook
