  1. Still a #spinning beginner but getting more comfortable. I spun these singles over the past 3 days. I've read that I should let them "rest" before plying. Not sure why or for how long but doing it anyway. #spinningyarn #spinningwool

  2. An older video by JillianEve - I just love how she combines telling so expertly about fibercrafts of all kind. And adding that bit of social critique (or however I should call it)

  4. A favorite is available again in my shop. This is Tidal, hand dyed on Polwarth wool.

  5. Winding a longer skein of yarn with just your body. In case the niddy-noddy is not at hand.

    Extremely cool.

    Easy, gadget free, skein winding trick!

  7. Heyyyy mastodon!

    It’s time for a snapshot #introduction of me, and how I'm hoping to contribute to this platform

    My name is Cassie and I run a Philadelphia based community craft and art group. The group started 9 years ago on another well known platform and over the years it stopped serving our purposes. My hope is that this space can help connect our local community and inspire others to follow suit.

    I prefer she/her and they/them pronouns and I default to using they/them pronouns with new people that don’t specify a preference.

    I'm an #artist, #crafter, #organizer, and #designer. In order of most experienced to least, I utilize and teach the following skills: #leatherwork #accessorydesign #handembroidery #chainstitchembroidery #basketweaving #handbuildingclay #bookmaking #printing #surfacedesign #naturaldyeing #felting #spinningyarn #painting #drawing

    I like to create, I have a love of aquatic fish, mushrooms, bugs, bones, prismatic colors, texture, line work, anything tufted, and gin is the way to my heart.

    I look forward to sharing my creations and offering support with questions about any skillsets that I am able!

  9. Day 1 on Mastodon. I'm a spinner of yarn, avid knitter and enjoy Morris dancing and playing the flute. Looking for communities that are also enthusiastic about #knitting #FolkMusic #morrisdancing and #spinningyarn

  11. Time togo to bed I think. Can stacking plate (custome FreeCAD design that on it's own will hold 3 cans for the bottom of a stack of 6, or with some creativity can go between a bottom row of 4 against a wall for a stack of 10) currently on the printer. That's got another 4 hours left to go. Then a 11 hour print of a 3 spool Lazy Kate design that I may end up turning into a SVC to laser cut for people who have those. Current design is for 5 mm stock, but aimed at a 3d Printer.#SpinningYarn

  12. New spinning material from the fiber festival! Looks funky now, but will be fabulous when washed. The bleached tips will change the color of the final product but with a multicolor fleece like this it can only add.

  13. Ich hab da mal ein Hobby wiederbelebt! Und zwar Spinnen (nicht nur im Kopf).

    Die Spindeln hab ich die Tage schon von meinen Eltern wieder geholt, heute war das Spinnrad dran. Und es tut gut, dem leisen Klackern vom Woolmakers Bliss zu lauschen und zu sehen, wie der feine Faden auf die Spule gewickelt wird.

  14. OK, this is an absolute first for me. There is always, always, one last spool with 40-80 yds left on it. This time, it was 2 4 oz balls, spun over 4 spools (Clemes and Clemes spools are on the small size). By the time I got through all 4 spools, only about 6" difference! And for those following at home: yes, dear Ms. S is functioning just fine, the problem was (new) user error. #spinning #SpinningYarn #handspun @spinning @spinningyarn

  15. Well the first completed yarn off the new Majacraft Suzie (Spun my Clemes and Clemes but plyed on the Suzie.) 2-ply Corriedale with a hint of Firestar named Marianas Trench from Wild Wool Farm

    Unfortunately, dear Suzie has a problem-I can't get the flyer off, and there is probably a problem that is going to mean replacing a part - Response from the dealer from has been quick, but no idea how long to resolution. See? Another reason for multiple wheels 😁
