is spinning from the fold the best way to do long draw...have not attempted long draw as of yet....will use this vid as a tutorial for me to try ... thank you ...happy spinning
It would be hard to spin short forward draw spinning from the fold. It lends itself to long draw. But I think the difficulty level is about the same as spinning long draw from roving(woolen prep). I think that both woolen prep fiber and spinning from the fold lends itself more to being spun long draw. But you can spend long draw with any fiber you like.
That fibre is stunning, I love how it's turning out. I have an issue when I spin from the fold of the fiber 'tunneling', any advise/suggestions? Thanks ❤
Yes. Hold the fiber tails in your palm a little tighter and have the loop over your finger a little smaller and angle your hand just a bit down or up. Depending on where your start position is.
He wasn’t shaved by design. We asked for a slightly shorter cut but still full all over. She shaved him almost bald! I did get the fur! 1 pound bag! That will be a future video!
@@jkfiberarts I watched the next blog just after commenting ,got the gist of the bad haircut day 🙃.. Clearly they heard the word poodle and non of the other words that went with the sentence . It’s alright he’s still Finn just going through that awkward teenage phase ,, no longer ya fluff pup. He’ll be back ! A lb that sounds a lot will keep look out for that vid . Great tour so far Kirstan .
Amazing colors ❤
Thanks! 😊
Brilliant as always.
You are too kind! Thank you! 😊
Spinning at the beach must be so fun!!!
It is very relaxing! We have friends with permanent campers and it’s right on the water. Really nice!
Thanks so much for this. Spinning from the fold is new to me. I will try it!
You should! There is a bit of a learning curve, but it is worth it!
