Spinning singles - short forward draw and short backward draw
This is the fifth in this series,
So far we:
1- skirted the fleece [ Ссылка ]
2- washed it with buckets and soap [ Ссылка ]
3- Picked it with a swing picker [ Ссылка ]
4- Using my Brother Drum carder, Carded the fiber into two, 2 ounce batts [ Ссылка ]
Next we will ply it, wash it up, Ball it up and knit some simple socks that you can easily adjust too fit any foot size.
All using the same Ombre Grey sheep's fleece from shearing school. Most likely a Suffolk Sheep but could be a mixed breed.
In this video I will show you how to spin the batts into singles using two different ways of drawing out the fibers for spinning.
Spinning for beginners and easy ways to check your gauge.
I show you how to fix thin spots pick out thick spots and reattach fiber many times. Watch all the way through to see different views and angles.
