Spinning with Turkish Spindles: Singles to Plying

My second Fiber Arts related course through FiberyGoodness. This self paced course can be started at any time, and has three sections: Singles, Plying, and Nplying, plus Troubleshooting and an FAQ for tips and tricks I've picked up through my 7 year experience with Turkish Spindles. This course includes both a written text with plenty of detail to work from, as well as almost an hour in total of video examples and demonstrations.

For more information about this course check out the course page.

These colors!!!!! I love the way the new layer contrasts so sharply from the prior. 💙💚💛 .

My next oldest project is 15.5 micron Merino dyed by @woolgatherings that I started September of 2016 on @akerworks Mini Spindles. I only have about a spindle and a half left to complete this one. One of the few times something isn't in a Sistema container. This cute little box is from Daiso. #Akerworks #AkerworksMiniSpindle #Akerworksspindles #minispindle #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #woolgatherings #tinystudiobox #tinystudio

These are my favorite colors within this spin. I love how the colors look against the Holly wood of the spindle. The next few photos feature these colors in various stages of wrapping. 💙💚💛 .

This year with the exception of Tour de Fleece I spent entirely all my spinning time focused on my projects for @plymagazine. Over the past week or so I’ve been putting together my planners for next year and thinking about what I’d like to accomplish next year. I made a list of all my spinning WIPS and some how despite all the time I spent not working on personal projects I’ve accumulating 7 spinning projects!!! And 5 of those are spindle projects! Not quite sure how that happened 😂 This is the oldest one started back in November of 2015. I love keeping my projects in these Sistema containers. Makes it easy to see the projects and keeps them protected when I’m not working on them. #Akerworks #AkerworksModularSpindle #Akerworksspindles #Geranium #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #woolgatherings #tinystudio
