Next up is my first version of a Dealgan drop spindle. They're available in five different sizes and I can even customize the weights if you want something specific!

Is it a #loomweight or a #dropspindle asks @francescasq.bsky.social and @suespins.bsky.social asks, should those who study historical #textiles be able to make them?

Trading doomscrolling for spindle spinning when I just can't with the world has been very rewarding. Plying 330 yards into a giant turtle was incredibly satisfying (turtle shown w/ Puscifer cd for scale). All done except a bath to fluff & set the twist!

Large lozenge shaped ball of bright purple and lime green striped yarn in front of a cd case which has been propped upright. The yarn is over half as tall as the cd. The striped strands neatly criss-crossing each other create zig zaggy op-art effect that appears to slightly vibrate. Thick twisted hank of lime green and bright purple barber pole striped handspun yarn.

Spinning yarn (Merinio/flax blend) as I listen to The Hobbit. Less than a chapter in and Gandalf is already my favourite character. So sassy.

Had a blast today at the Garden State Sheep Breeders festival, demonstrating spindle spinning and showing kids of all ages how to make "yarn worms." If you're attending Sunday, come see me and other demonstrations at the Grange building!

A man stands behind a table covered with a chaotic array of spindles, fiber, yarn, and knitted samples. He is talking with several people as someone tries out spinning. A man behind a table is leading a person in making a yarn worm. He is winding fiber around a dowel rod. People gather around a table of fibery curiosities as a couple people spin yarn on spindles.

Haven't spun for a while so here is a picture of some bamboo fibre i spun today. Not much thinking of plying it as cable ply with a blue bamboo. Also debating doing 4 colours to get more yardage. What do you wonderful people think?

I then knitted a beret. Not enough wool to finish, so it is completed in charity shop yarn. I can unpick it & redo with proper found wool when I can get some.
Beret is very lumpy due to my total lack of dropspindle skills but nevertheless I am rather pleased. Far too warm to wear at the moment.
3/3

I’ve been doing some more drop spindle spinning lately. The fiber batt is a mix of recycled yarn I put together on my drum carder. #spinning #yarnspinning #dropspindle #fiberart #recycledart #fiberartist

One Back to the Future trilogy's worth of dropspun Suffolk - given how rough my rolags have been I'm pleased with the look of this! Another couple of hours and I'll be ready for my first #tourdefleece2025 ply!

#BendigoWoolAndSheepShow stole all my money.
I have spinning to do. Lots of it.

There will be a blog post with better pics and links to the stores I bought from.

A pile of fibre and weaving and knitting tools on my bed. It’s a cluttered mess, better photos with better descriptions when I do the blog post - sorry.

Morning #tourdefleece people! How goes it? Hoping to get a fair bit done today, trying to maintain my pace and just get through the prepped Suffolk asap. #dropspindlespinning #yarnsky #dropspinning
A slightly-wound dropspindle in my hand, resting on a lovely soft colourful stripey IKEA blanket. A stack of poorly-rolled creamy Suffolk fleece rolags are falling into view from the right-hand side of the photo.
