Have you been waiting to start learning to spin until you decide what kind of tool or equipment you want? Wait no longer! Now you can make yarn using just a pencil!
Or, you know, any kind of stick, really. Plus, it’s not really “now you can,” because people have been making yarn for at least 34,000 years, so it isn’t really news. I just thought that line sounded cute.
Abby you are awesome. That is all.
You had an old YouTube video that I watched a long time ago, before I really got going spinning. You were outside, showing how to put twist in by pulling out the fiber and twisting by using your fingers…that was a breakthrough moment in spinning for me! I suddenly got it. Up to that point spinning seemed very mysterious. It was wonderful but I couldn’t envision the process. I have send a million people (only a slight exaggeration) to see that video since then and it helped every one of them. Thanks for being there when I (and that million other people) needed you! You continue to make and also post to YouTube helpful and illuminating videos….thanks a million, well, maybe it’s more than a million by now. 😀
This means I can use that Russian spindle for *something.* Thank you!
Great video! You are a spinnin’ star, Abby!
