- Hi everyone and welcome to the first episode of The Spinning Chronicles! I have had so much amazing feedback from sharing snippets of new spinning jouney and many of you have said that you would love to see it in more detail. This isn't a lesson as such but more of a Vlog of my own personal journey with spinning, but I am sure you will pick up some tips along the way! If you have tips for me, then I would absolutely love to read them in the comments!
My fibre was purchased from Wonderful Woof on Etsy and my wheel is an Ashford Kiwi 3 which I purchasd from The Threshing Barn.
I have started adding Art Batts in my Etsy Shop for all of you budding spinners out there! www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Craftand...

Wow!! Gorgeous yarn. Amazing job throughout the entire process. So impressed!!
Thank you 🥰❤️
🎉Congratulations 🎉 What beautiful yarn you have created ! It’s absolutely stunning! I love it as well as that first one you spun too! The texture on both is amazing. Thank you for sharing the whole process. WOW! Definitely a labor of love for sure. As always, you are a total joy to watch and learn from. Love your videos. Have a beautiful day.
Thank you so much! Next time I won't waffle on as much and get to the point a bit quicker 😆❤️
Thanks for this video. I love watching the process. You can always weigh it on the kitchen scale and calculate yardage that way. Hope you’re having a good morning.💗🧡💛💙
Yes that's a good idea!
It looks like James Brett marble yarn! Great job!
Thank you! 😊
Ooohhhh it's like magic when you pull off the sticks!!
Also like magic when you pull it off the sticks!
Yes it is isn't it 😍
@@CraftandaCuppa the yarn you made is exquisite. When you're spinning it makes me think of water. Like waves or bobbing up and down in a boat
@@katieduffy593 thank you. It's a really relaxing craft....when it's going right 😆
Awesome! Merino and nylon is the perfect yarn for socks😊
Ah is it! I've not attempted socks yet as I'm quite sensory and can't imagine handmade on my feet 🤣 but I totally feel like I'm missing out!!!
@@CraftandaCuppa oh you so are! I have a cupboard full of slippers and socks that I’ve made and live in lol
Nice video! Thanks for sharing your spinning adventure! I love, love, love how your yarn turned out! Beautiful!
Thank you so much!!
That’s is such a gorgeous yarn you have made, thanks for sharing the process
Thank you so much 🥰
Woawww Kelly I love it thanks very much for showing us the process
the learning is ongoing but your yarn looks amazing to me well done !
Thanks so much 😊
It looks soooo beautiful! It was so interesting to see the whole process.
Thank you so much!
You are doing amazing at the whole process. The colours are beautiful. Thank you for letting us watch. It was fantastic to see
Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I did waffle on a bit too much at the beginning so next time will speed it up a bit 😆
❤ I love this! It was so relaxing to watch. I would love to see you make more yarn! Now I want to start spinning myself. 😂
Ah amazing thank you! I did waffle on a bit too much at the beginning so will try not to do that next time 😆
Doing great for someone new to spinning, don’t worry about the tech names you will pick them up. Try off setting the knot on your leader so you have a loop that you can re use without having to keep cutting it,are you going to wonderwool at the end of the month it’s a fantastic show, you can wind you yarn around your hand and a finger in a figure of eight, to create a way of plying the ends off the bobbins it creates a wrist hank that you can use both ends from look for Andean plying in the web for the instructions
Thanks for the tips! I will definitely look into that! 🥰😊
I love it. The yarn is amazing and looks like fun. It also looks like a lot of work. It really does give me a new appreciation for the finished product. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you! Yes there's lots of different stages and I really enjoy doing all of them, especially plying as that's when you see all your hard work coming together! ❤️
I'm dying to see your yarn worked up. BTW you're still coughing when you laugh! That infection must have been horrific!
Yes I can't seem to shake it off 🙃
Don't forget to give your hands and feet a warm up and do you use a wpi card ?? And it looks amazing yarn x
Thanks for the tip and yes I do have a WPI card 🥰 Yes my pinching hand can get a bit achy after spinning my singles!
That seems like a lot of work, no wonder why yarn is so expensive.....
Beautiful colours.
Thank you for sharing have loved watching, already made me tired of seeing you work so hard 😊😂
Thank you so much 🥰❤️
Did you use any online tutorials to teach you how to do all if this? X
Yes I watched some tik toks and also watched a few tutorials on RUclips! I really like watching Jillian Eve 🥰
@@CraftandaCuppa - Jillian Eve is brilliant. If you like a different vibe but also highly enjoyable spinning content, you might consider Mijn Wolden. Jente will often include what she makes out of the yarn she spins, which is great. I also enjoy Becca Lewis, and BF Fibre Arts. A lot of others as well, but those came to mind next to Jillian Eve.
I love it that for a newbie spinner (less than a year) there is plenty of spinning content on RUclips.
Happy spinning!
Edit: what I do to reduce the drying time, depending on my mood, how large the skein is, and how delicate the fibre I spun, is:
1. Wrap in a towel and literally STAND on the towel ‘sausage’ containing the skein. As there is no wringing or agitation, the pressure isn’t an issue.
2. Use the salad wringer method. Thrift shops are great sources for salad wringers for really cheap.
I spin lace weight yarn, which is said to be extremely delicate. No issues. I’ve spun alpaca which is reputed to felt really easily. No issues.
For ‘extreme speed setting’ without thwacking, I shock the life out of it by using two different temperatures of water. One is nice and warm, one is really cold. Soak the skein in warm water for the usual 15 minutes. Gently squeeze out the water. Dump the skein in really cold water and submerge it for minute or two. Remove, squeeze out excess, then use a towel. Hang to dry. This also works really well if you want to set singles.
@@eddavanleemputten9232 yes I like Jillian too!
