Fully agree that this is the only way to live life. I, also, live bouncing around and working on different parts of my sweater as the whim hits

I feel like my entire world is now crumbling around me 😭

Are you telling me that coffee and matcha are not good substitutes for water???

It’s so much fun! I’ve been too sick to do too much in the shop the last week or two, but I’m so excited to feel better and get some spindles cranked out 🤌🏻

Oh, please start blogging again! I miss longer form, written content ♥️

I’ve made this mistake before…and have 100% switched to a wheel and just been really neurotic about checking my twist angles 🤪😂

Because it’s a rule that you must have one of every craft going at a time! Or, at least, that’s what I tell myself 😂

I should do this for the enormous pile of mending I have hiding in my studio 🙈👀

I can’t wait until my name comes up on the waitlist 🤤

I was lucky to snag one before prices went bonkers on them 😅. I have a hard time digesting store bought wheat so having some treats in the freezer would be SO nice! I might have to do it after I get some filming and cleaning done 🙈

I really love a good Finn fleece — it’s such a lovely tactile experience and the fleeces are also. Like. Reasonable sizes 🙈. I haven’t played around with much BFL or Corriedale yet, but I’m hoping to snag some Corrie this fall to try out!

This is making me want to get my grain mill out and make some cinnamon rolls for the freezer 😍

But green and pink together just make me so happy

I LOVE the colors 😍

We are! We got them primarily for milk and the fiber and meat aspect are just a nice byproduct :). I’m hoping to breed them late summer/early autumn so we have winter lambs next year :)

That turned out gorgeous! I love the soft heathering in the skein and am excited to see how it works up 😍

This is so cool! I love how they’re marching down the band!

Heheeee — I mean. I got mine, with a full tool set, for $150 on fb marketplace 👀. And if you need resource info I can send some good YouTube accounts and woodturning forums 👀😂. It’s already paid for itself in free spindles! 😂😂😂

It sounds very true with no wobble, & next time I’ll make sure to make a paper template to compare to for the shaft thickness…I’ve found it much easier to actually get it thin enough when I do that since I obviously can’t eye ball it (& could’ve definitely gotten it thinner if I’d noticed it!)

Do ittttt! Haha, I am such a woolen spinner because it feels so magical and is so much faster. It just kind of ‘clicks’ at some point and it’s such a cool feeling when you can finally feel it in your fingers!
