Shearing to Carding and ready for handspinning. Processing wool from the beginning.
All about hand spinning yarn, knitting, owning a wool mill, farm life and everything in between.
Link to the video for this episode on YouTube
https://youtu.be/CaJbgkf3KPg
This episode is Shetland on Shetland. I take from shearing to skirting fleeces to scouring the wool, handpicking the wool and finally carding. This was the first time in many years that we have let our Shetlands grow a full year of wool so it was fun to take you all on the processing journey with me.
