Fiber Arts Stuff
May. 18th, 2009 10:13 amWhile at the event Saturday I found a lady spinning flax. Woo! I have two new techniques to try with my spinning. She had the fiber on her shoulder wrapped in a towel. I want to try that with silk to see if it helps control the fiber better. She would also wrap the yarn in a figure eight around her drafting hand before wrapping onto the spindle. I hadn't though of that... it'll make wrapping lengths spun while standing much easier.
