Colorplay in hand spun yarn, Knitting a Sweater in 2 months and wool processing

 All about hand spinning yarn, knitting, owning a wool mill, farm life and everything in between. In this episode I talk share my Calliope sweater knitting progress and then we dive into my current hand spinning project with wool Blue Faced Leicester top. I compare how playing with color in your fibers can effect your hand spun yarn. Then it’s time for what’s happening at the wool mill. Restocked products including Romney wool roving, Romney/alpaca/silk wool roving and even some natural white Merino roving. Finally we head to the videos of visiting the Shetland sheep to see all their wool growth, unboxing a Romeldale cross raw wool fleece and then videos from inside the carding mill including at the washer and carding wool. Link to this Episode on YouTubehttps://youtu.be/738Y8zY6wwkSign up for the Ewethful newsletter anywhere on my sitehttps://www.ewethfulfiberfarm.comShop for Ewethful handspinning fibershttps://www.ewethfulfiberfarm.com/collectionsJoin Ewethful’s Patreon Communityhttps://www.patreon.com/EwethfulFiberMillFree hand spinning resourceshttps://www.ewethfulfiberfarm.com/pages/wool-educationWhat I’m wearing in this episode:Pattern: Keith MoonDesigner: Kate DaviesYarn: Hand spun Shetland yarnBlue tonal BFL wool top by Dicentra Dyeshttps://dicentradesigns.net/Knit-a-long on Ravelry https://www.ravelry.com/discuss/ewethful-fiber-farm--mill/4292265/1-25Pattern: CalliopeDesigner: Espace TricotYarns I am using for my Calliopehttps://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/calliope-13Sincere Sheep Fingering Cormo shown in vloghttps://www.ewethfulfiberfarm.com/collections/other-u-s-milled-yarns/products/sincere-sheep-cormo-fingering-weight-yarnEwetopia Mohair/Silk yarns shown in vloghttps://www.ewethfulfiberfarm.com/collections/other-u-s-milled-yarns/products/mohair-silk-lace-weight-ewetopia-yarnMission at Ewethful: My mission at Ewethful Fiber Mill is to fill making hands with small batch American grown yarns and fibers.
