Two bobbins full of hand-spun singles ready to ply into a 2-ply yarn
More hand-dyed corriedale! I'm really looking forward to how this one plies up.

Extremely vibrant blue handspun wool yarn
I have to tweak the colors on the photo to get the yarn to look as BLUE as it does in real life

Here's that gorgeous blue wool, plied and ready to wet-finish. My camera still doesn't know what to do with the blue.

In the foreground, a 3D printed weaving loom with a swatch project just started. The shuttle resting on top of the weaving project is full of yarn. In the background, the ball of yarn for the weaving project, two tiny twisted hanks of yarn, and another larger loose hank of yarn.
Working on weaving another swatch, this time for Baa Ram Ewe's Faded British Breeds. I also have a new skein of 3-ply merino ready to finish, as well as a few test-spin minis.

A hand holding a piece of very very thin two-ply yarn as it unwinds from an electric spinning wheel's small bobbin
I have apparently forgotten how to spin thick yarn 😬

My spindle resting on my pink knitting loom. It's full of grey spun Gotland wool.
Another perspective of the spindle on my knitting loom. This time my grey Gotland wool is being wound from the spindle on to my nostepinne, or ball winder.
No lazy kate? No bobbins? Got a knitting loom? Why not use it as a DIY lazy kate. It absolutely works for me. Just make sure it's biggish one and tie a bobble (or tie) around two of the pegs your spindle is lodged between and it will not roll out. #handspinning #spinningwheel #spinningwool #fiberart
A twisted hank of green handspun yarn
And it's done! The first of two 3-ply skeins that will finish up this green Merino.

Two spinning wheel bobbins full of handspun singles in green merino wool. A cat in the background looks at the bobbins.
Finally done with the singles! I'll wind it off for storage and so it's easier to do a 3-ply.

Today I'm chain plying #malabrigonube merino wool. Colorway is Boreal, and I love the soft, heathered look I got while spinning. Very happy with how it's plying up! #spinningwheel

I think this bobbin is full 😆

An old photo of a woman from Eriskay spinning with a dealgan and distaff. She is seated in a chair and holding a dealgan in her right hand, whilst drafting wool from the distaff with her left hand.
Here is a picture of a woman from Eriskay spinning with a dealgan and distaff (1890s). And yes, I was wearing Pyjama trousers last night 🤪

A 19th century Bulgarian distaff with white lambswool wrapped round it. It is resting on my brown leather couch. The wrap is red in colour.
Bulgarian distaff (19th century made) all floofed up with lambswool 🙂 I've just started a spinning related TikTok profile and will be posting a link once it's up and running 😁

A box of spinning wheel pieces waiting to be assembled. Screw drivers and a rubber mallet last in front of the opened box.
An Ashford Traveller II spinning wheel, freshly assembled. It is an upright style wheel, with a clear lacquer finish. A Traditional Saxony wheel can be seen to the back left.
A close up of the wheel hub, showing where the metal tube pieces do not insert into the wheel.
The wheel that I bought in Jan is finally assembled! An old/new stock Traveller in double drive. Her name is Holda, I love her. She has a defect in her wheel hub or the uprights (spaces that I cannot eliminate) and I have to contact Ashford. 🧶 #handspinning #ashford #spinningwheel #fiberart #spinsky

Just a wee example of me spinning with a distaff and spindle. It's a short clip, but it gives you an idea of how it's done. I don't claim to be perfect or professional btw. #spinsky #spinningwool #spinningwheel #dropspindlespinning #dropspindle #medievalspinning #suspendedspindlespinning
