Spinning my own hand dyed braid. I really like how these colors are turning out. Looks like a landscape with a blue sky.

I got some super pretty cotton carders from celestial farms (cfmercantile) on etsy. I've been making punis cause that's the only way I can spin cotton, it's so hard! But I'm getting the hang of it.

Here is the tahkli spindle I've been practicing spinning cotton with and the little bit of fine yarn I made. Natural brown plyed with white. Now I'm waiting for my carders to arrive because it was so easier to spin from the punis that came in the kit I got. #handspinningandfiberprep #fiberarts

Spun and plyed on my support spindle. I still need alot of practice with support spindle, for sone reason I just can't get it down like other spinning methods, but I'm determined to get it! #supportspindle #handspun #handspinningandfiberprep
Handspun handdyed embroidery thread. From left to right : cochineal, cochineal overdyed with osage, cochineal overdyed with osage second bath, osage, osage modified with copper, osage modified with iron. I love how you can get so many colors with just a few natural dyes

All the handspun yarn I've made so far. I just wanted to look at my progress so far. The top row is with a drop spindle and the bottom row is on the wheel.
