Spinning up llama fibre!

#handspinning #supportspindle #fibreart #handspunyarn #yarn

What is says on the tin!

We hit the ground running with our first farm, Millstream Miniature Llamas 🦙 While these llamas are busy at work being ethereal and gorgeous, we actually have caught them on a day-off!

Yes! I plan to do an intro to the farm and a closer look at the fibre I got (:

✍️ My personal favourite part of a trip: planning! I love contacting folks, making an itinerary, and scheduling appointments lol
Can you guess what kind of fibre the first farm has? I gave y’all a hint and I’d love to hear your guesses 🤔

I took a road trip 🚗 and visited farms at my local fibreshed! So excited to finally show you all my video project at last.

Thank you to @camila-sze.bsky.social for creating the logo I’m using in my videos!

😵‍💫 Found some time to handspin this batt before a café hang! Also, Spingo 2026 update 💕

My belt and my distaff ribbon were woven by @loopandwarp.bsky.social (from our guild!)
Distaff is literally just a stick!

Hi! I'm back on BlueSky, fibre friends! I'm unsure how to post more often on this account, but I'm determined to as I want this platform to be more of a home-base, rather than insta or anything else. Not sure how to make it sustainable for me, but I'm working towards it!

Handspun in the sun! Knitting the sonatine collar 💐🍀🌈☀️

Thank you! I usually hate knitting hats but the colour is what kind of kept me going 🥹

Just finished drum carding! It’s sooo soft and shiny ✨

#fibreprep #carding #batt

Oooh, that sounds cool! I was wondering if I should separate mine, but I have currently only have a drumcarder and I find there’s so much more thel (inner coat) than tog (outer coat) fibres

I haven’t! It’s a pretty fibre, but I am very nervous I’ll mess it up somehow. The dream is to spin it as a lopi single!

Frog hat!!!!!! YAAAAA

Processed some Icelandic tonight!

Linen soup

Oh btw! This is pre soak! I’m currently drying it right now, but I was soooo excited to show it off. It’s maybe the finest and softest thing I’ve spun yet

Small but mighty! Gotland/alpaca blend, spindle spun, lace weight, 178m or 194 yds

My most frustrating spin vs. My dreamiest spin

Planning a fibre farm road trip to Vancouver Island! Does anyone know of any farms that sell fibre? Wool, alpaca, mohair, chiengora, plant fibre, anything goes really.
