Spinning cotton on a tiny cross armed spindle, but I need a bit more practice before I can use it for tatting.

A while ago I took on a chain plying assignment.
To say this got me to practice chain plying, and get my plying abilities back on track would be an understatement.

New orange dress.

Historically accurate, except for the colour.

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open. We have less than 700 responses to go until we hit 40,000, and 7 days left.

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary, and it takes ~5 mins.

This one is too new to know if it happens.
I do however have one French spindle made of pear wood that did bend a bit when I had the spindle stuck on a distaff (with the ribbon that holds the wool on the distaff) when I had it outside on a somewhat humid day.
A new lathe, and a new challenge!

I can now make spindle sticks!

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.
The Wytsingdays is a small free viking living history event, and I’ll be participating!

I’ll be showing how to spin with a spindle and distaff, with a few extra’s.

This was my first practice piece for a French spinning spindle.
Although since that practice piece I have made a few handles for crochet hooks.
After some years I did some tablet weaving again.

Dang it, it happened again.
Plying was not on point.
