I am always excited to learn new crafting skills. Yesterday I took a little break from dollmaking and made myself a spindle from a knitting needle, safety pin and clay so I could spin this wool. Hoping to incorporate it into a new pillow cover and will post more pics as I get into it! #forevervirginia #handspinning #handspunyarn #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #spinningyarn #spinning #spinningwheel #handspinnersofinstagram #spinnersofig #wool #handspinner #yarn #handmade #spinstagram #handspinningyarn #dropspindle #spindle #spinningfiber #fiberart #igspinners #handspunstagram #spindlespinning #spinningwool #yarnlove #spindlespun #yarnporn #fiber #makersgonnamake #knitting https://www.instagram.com/p/B9W5UZBJzjQ/?igshid=1jvx8jek760wb

Took a few days off after the Shetland disaster and a strained thumb. Picking up with some GORGEOUS Correidale from Edgewood Gardens. Using my hand carders to fluff them out into rolags. (Edgewood is amazing stuff, but she braids really tight and my fiber is kinda compacted.) so far, a good spin. Letting the fiber do what it wants so long as it doesn't snap or drift apart! #spinning #crafts #handspinning #handspun #spindlespun #supportspindle #rolags #roving #yarn
