Yarnspinners Tales's Podcast

The Gulf Coast Native sheep are a critically threatened breed of sheep per the Livestock Conservancy program. I purchased a sample of the breed wool and review washing and spinning it, in this podcast.

Our study of fibers for spinning the wool from different sheep continues, with two breeds of Welsh sheep.

This is a the second in a series of short podcasts about specific sheep breeds' fiber and how it spins. This podcast is about the East Fresian breed, a sheep that is mostly raised for milk production.

One of a series of podcasts that review a specific breed of sheep and how it spins. This podcast talks about my experience with fiber from the US and from UK.

This pod cast contains an interview about the Livestock Conservancy program for rare breed sheep.

I am passionate about spinning as many different sheep breeds' wool and when I am able to try new ones, I love telling my listeners all about that sheep.

A new year and 2020 seems especially important so I talk some about what it means to look at life with perfect vision. Then there is lots of spinning talk, as I start new projects and continue on with the old.

Spinning Wool Beyond the Basics is by Anne Field. In this podcast I review this book.

Many different spinning topics covered in this podcast, including problem solving with my spinning wheel, a major reorganization of my fiber stash, and two reviews, one the sheep breed baby doll southdown, and the other a fiber fair in Indiana.

A chatty ppodcast about my spinning for Oct 2019. I attend a fiber fair, The Wool Gathering. I also join the challenge spin of seeing how much yarn you can spin in one week with the group on Facebook called, Spin Together.

Recently I watched a video from my library called World Spinning Techniques. I enjoyed it so much, I took notes and reviewed it for you in this podcast.

During the Tour de France,we spinners like to spin our spinning wheels and make yarn. This is the second part of the two part series telling about all the yarn and other fiber projects I did during the Tour de Fleece (Tour de France)

In the fiber world, when the cyclists ride in the Tour de France, the spinners take time out to spin their spinning wheels and create yarn. This is the first podcast of two, to describe all of the projects I did during that event.

This podcast takes a break from talking about spinning fiber into yarn, to review a book on the topic of Spindle Spinning. The author of the book is Connie Delaney.

Fiber Fairs are special events for those of us that like to spin yarn from wool or other fibers, knitters and weavers for many different lovely hand dyed yarns, or those who just love to see the animals that provide the fibers. They happen all over the US and there is sure to be one within driving distance to you. I went to one in my state in May and this podcast talks about that visit.
