Yarnspinners Tales's Podcast

Once I returned to fiber work and spinning after surgery, I was able to complete one spinning project, and continue work on another alpaca project. I also review the book, Creative Spinning by Alison Daykin and Jane Deane.

This podcast talks about washing a fiber from an alpaca, and then spinning that fiber into yarn.

I spin the same kind of yarn all the time! Sound familiar? Then listen to this podcast as I talk about the preparation of the fiber and watching the drafting zone as you spin. Soon you will be able to change what yarns you spin.

This podcast is all about my experiences and purchases at the Stitches Midwest 2018 market, plus a bit about Franklin Habit's presentation.

A second part to the summary of what I spun during the 2018 Tour de Fleece. I talk about the wool breeds Zwartbles and Dor Galen and also spinning buffalo fiber.

This podcast is a spin in which means I talk about all sorts of things, just like one would do when gathered together with their friends.
