Currently Playing: Spinning and dyeing a new sheep breed: shenanigans with Hampshire Down wool

Hello friends! Last week you saw me scour that very dirty and VM heavy Hampshire Down fleece, so today we're going to play with that woolly goodness. I want to retry getting green dye from copper, and while we wait for our natural dye to, well, dye our wool: let's also card a batt of this fiber and spin a lovely skein of two ply worsted weight yarn (but with a long draw drafting method, of course) on Kristine, my Ashford traditional spinningwheel. If you want to join in on the chaos, you can join the patreon via: https://www.patreon.com/MijnWolden You can also find me on Ravelry and Instagram as @MijnWolden If you enjoy spinning, yarn, knitting, fiber arts or anym other traditional craft then this channel is right up your alley.
