I'm going to give a talk tomorrow about yarn structure. I don't want it to be too abstract (read boring), so I've been making little samples to illustrate my points. It's all about twist and balance! I also did some spinning with my spindle to make sure I still could; it's a while since I used anything but my spinningwheel to spin with. It was fine. I'm not sure I'll use the spindle tomorrow, but I needed to make sure I could. I plan to give everyone a bit of wool roving to finger spin with, to make it a hands-on experience.
Wow, that sounds really interesting!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to come to your talk? Could you perhaps condense the information into a blog post one day?
ReplyDeleteI’ll give it some thought!
DeleteIf your presentation skills are are good or half as good as your preparations, you’ll be fantastic?
ReplyDeleteYour talk sounds interesting, I wish I could sit and listen to it, I'm sure it will not be boring.
ReplyDeleteI must apologise while I was away on holiday in turkey the wifi was crap and now I'm home blogger is not playing ball, so I have missed and been unable to comment on your lovely blog.
Very interesting!! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! I wish I could attend!
ReplyDeleteI'm from the 'boring' side, but am sure if you were to talk/teach, I'd become very interested ;-P
ReplyDeleteAll the very best today - spin them around your little finger !
