Once the cotton plants began producing again, it reinspired my #spinning practice. They begin flowering in the spring and make a round of fruit and then stop flowering again in the depths of the summer when it’s too hot. However, during that time because of the rains, the plant becomes verdant and lush. Then in the fall, it’ll bloom and fruit again. That’s when you get the biggest harvest. #NativePlants #fiberarts #handspinning

Part 3 Tunis sheep felting experiment
Thread 1/2Here are the photos of the finished felt before dying. It definitely has a beige pink hue, like the sheep's face. When I got the felt in the dye pot, I added some acid to turn it more orange, but then I decided I wanted it to be red so I could make a sashiko piece with it. I added chalk to swing it back to a redder hue.

Part 2 Tunis sheep continued: felting experiment
I apologize for the last long thread--I'll post fewer at a time..I carded the waste leftover from spinning and made a felt sample. It wasn't great, but not bad either, so I soaked it overnight in Aluminum triformate, which is a cold-water mordant. I dyed it with madder root, which I'll share in the next post.
The felt shown here is not quite completely done, and I had to fix it a bit. -

#RiverheadNY - Long Island #FleeceAndFiber Fair at #Hallockville #MuseumFarm
May 16 @ 10:00 am – 5:00 pm
Hallockville Museum Farm
6038 Sound Avenue
Riverhead NYAdmission is $10 for adults; children 12 and under are free.
"Hallockville Museum Farm will host its annual Long Island Fleece & Fiber Festival on Saturday, May 16, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. inviting visitors to experience the full journey of fiber – from raw fleece to finished textile — at its historic North Fork campus.
"A longtime spring tradition, the festival brings the cycle of fiber to life through live sheep and llama shearing with Long Island Yarn and Farm, #spinning, and #weaving demonstrations, along with a #marketplace featuring more than two dozen regional #FiberArtists and #Artisans.
"A major highlight this year is the appearance of nationally recognized #knitting expert Patty Lyons, who will lead two special sessions focused on practical techniques and problem solving for knitters. Additional hands-on workshops include an introduction to weaving with the #PaumanokWeavers, where participants can create their own scarf; a flat #NeedleFelted farm landscape workshop led by Shamma Murphy; and #BasketWeaving with Barbara Blossey-Chuvalas using #NaturalMaterials such as #silk, #seagrass, and #wool. Advance registration is required for workshops.
"In addition to demonstrations and workshops, visitors can explore a variety of family-friendly activities, including a children’s #craft area, agricultural displays, and opportunities to meet the farm’s animals. Attendees are welcome to bring their #FiberArts projects to work amongst like-minded creators.
" 'The Fleece & Fiber Festival connects people directly to the traditions that shaped life on the #NorthFork,' said Executive Director Heather Johnson. 'It’s a chance to see, touch, and learn skills that were once part of everyday life here and that continue to inspire #makers today.'
"The festival also features live music by the Old Time Jam, local food vendors, and a bake sale hosted by Hallockville Bakers."

#Spinning #FiberArts #Sheep #Knitting
Thread about Tunis sheep woolI've been trying to catch up on some spinning (I think I have the equivalent of a small herd of sheep fleeces under my bed) so I started with a 4 lb Tunis fleece I bought from Foxdale Springs Farm in the Shave 'em to Save 'em program. To those unfamiliar, this program is an effort to save rare breeds of sheep from extinction by purchasing fleece from the shepherds.
The sheep originated in Tunisia and became popular in the US

Not sure if I mentioned here or just Patreon, but I am trying to stash bust this year. Even so, this combo of coloured merino from Lescatole.de, ostensibly felting supplies, breached my defenses and has joined the long blending & spinning queue.

Das Motto des Internationalen Tages der Pressefreiheit am 3. Mai lautet heuer: „Eine Zukunft in Frieden gestalten: Pressefreiheit für Menschenrechte, Entwicklung und Sicherheit fördern.“
Während bei der World Press Freedom Day Global Conference am 04. und 05. Mai in Lusaka, Sambia, über diese Themen gesprochen wird, spinne, stricke und häkle ich im Atelier Mitzi für die Pressefreiheit: Mit meiner Handspindel stelle ich aus alten Zeitungen Papiergarn her. Daraus entstehen gehäkelte Körbe und gestrickte Stücke.

#handspinning #spinning i have a plying question. I spun some bobbins (Z) and plied 2 threads together (S). Can I immediately ply those plied threads together (Z again)or do i need to let the plied (2 ply) thread settle for a while?

I'm following #spinning. Which is nice, because I get to see toot from wool spinners I don't (yet) follow. And every now and then there's this guy postig picures of his sweaty body lol

Today was a day for art yarn. Bought a feathery, sparkly and oh so soft texture batt of "alpaca wool and stuff" in Estes Park many years ago. Spun it some months back but had no idea what to ply it with, until I found a gorgeous bunch of Blue Faced Leicester, dyed yellow with some nature dye I've forgotten (but there should be a note on a paper somewhere). Might as well name it "The Shining". It will be even more sparkly after a soaking.

My dad just told me that his maternal grandma used to spin and weave cotton to make calico. I’m gobsmacked. Time to get back to my #spinning practice! Life’s been so damn hectic, I can’t believe I ever even had time for it. The calm will return, I hope. #AncestralMemory #textiles #fibers

In this week's crafting blog post I've spun up some autumnal Corriedale combed top on my spinning wheel.

Summer has started - we sat outside at the spinning group today, which is so nice after many months inside.
The inside location is nice, too. It's a tiny local museum so very fitting for an old craft. But outside is just better.

Today's impulse buy at the thrift store was this wooden doodad that I'm assuming has something to with spinning wool, though I'm not entirely sure. Is it a weird looking spindle? Something else? Any ideas?
Edit: several people have suggested a phang spindle (yay, new word!), which seems very likely. And know I have a name to do more research.
