Super awesome umbrella swift FTW that can handle the big 3 yard skeins my @akerworks prototype Super Skeiner/Yarn Winder/ Wonder Skeiner can make! Getting ready to hand wind 9.8 oz! πThis is going to take awhile but at least I can enjoy the outdoors while I do this. This skein was spun entirely on one bobbin on my Starling Mini and then Navajo plied on one bobbin on my Starling XL. #daedalusspinningwheels #electricspinningwheel #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #espinner #spinningyarn #handspunstagram #igspinners #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #starlingspinner

Getting ready to skein the monster skein of handspun I spun on my Starling Mini and hand dyed myself. It’s ginormous!!! It weighs 9.8 oz. I better get the yardage real quick before I hand wind this pretty on a nostepinne. I know it’s going to make me wish I had a ball winder. Plants in the square pots are my cotton fiberlings. Yarn was dyed using @woolwench’s tie dye technique she wrote about in Issue 1 of tinyStudio Creative Life Magazine. #daedalusspinningwheels #electricspinningwheel #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #espinner #spinningyarn #handspunstagram #igspinners #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #starlingspinner

Over the past several months I've been putting my Starlings to the test and getting to know them as best as I can for a review I was writing up for tinyStudio Creative Life Magazine. It has been such a joy working with my two Starlings and writing up this review. Thanks so much @daedalusspinningwheels for giving me a sneak peek before these amazing wheels went public and for making it possible for me to spin with these incredible spinners. This will be in Issue 3 which will be available to our tinyStudio Subscribers later today. π #daedalusspinningwheels #spottedewefibers #electricspinningwheel #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #espinner #spinningyarn #handspunstagram #igspinners #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #starlingspinner #fiberygoodness #tinystudiocreativelifemagazine #tinystudioCreativeLife #tinyStudio

I’m so overjoyed to be able to finally share this project with you all that I did for the Summer 2019 issue of @plymagazine! This article is all about spinning across a flock of Turkish Spindles no matter their sizes for a single project. Stay tuned to #SpinItAcrossaFlockofTurkishSpindles for in-progress photos of this project. Fiber is Blue Eyes dyed by @greenwoodfiberworks on BFL. #plymagazine #writingforplymagazine #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #turkishspindle #jenkinsturkishspindle #greenwoodfiberworks #supportthespinningcommunity

My second article for the upcoming issue of @plymagazine on Suspended Spindles is about Ed Jenkins! I cannot say enough good things about Ed and Wanda Jenkins. The spindles Ed makes are the very reason why I got back into spindle spinning after I had stopped when I got my first wheel and for that, I will be forever grateful. This issue is going to have a lot on Turkish Spindles! #plymagazine #writingforplymagazine #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #turkishspindle #jenkinsturkishspindle #supportthespinningcommunity

SQUEE!!! I'm so excited for the upcoming issue of @plymagazine all about Suspended Spindles. I've seen the lineup and it's going to be an incredible issue. I have two articles both near and dear to my heart. The first one "Spin It! Across a Flock of Turkish Spindles is focused on my favorite way to spin on my flock of Turkish spindles leaving no spindle behind no matter their size! I know many of you here have seen my Spin on All the Things big Jenkins spins. The spin I did for this article went above and beyond my prior spins to include my little 3.28g Bee Hummingbird! I hope you all will enjoy the article! Stay tuned to #SpinItAcrossaFlockofTurkishSpindles for in-progress photos of this project soon. Fiber is Blue Eyes dyed by @greenwoodfiberworks on BFL. #plymagazine #writingforplymagazine #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #turkishspindle #jenkinsturkishspindle #greenwoodfiberworks #supportthespinningcommunity

Having a great time with Starla spinning up a new braid of BFL/Silk 75/25 from @spottedewefibers in the colorway Ariel. I'm putting together the finishing touches for my Starling Espinner Review that will be in Issue 3 of tinyStudio Creative Life Magazine. I'll also be recording special videos that will be included in a tinyStudio TV episode.

All the fiberlings are outside on the deck for a group photo. I need to pick up one more pot for the last one. Top Row is White Cotton along with the two in the middle row on the right side. The four brown pots are Brown Cotton and the bottom row is all Green Cotton. The 8 I've had outside over the past week are now hardy enough to be out in the sun without wilting. We should be getting some 70s this coming week which will be fantastic. Given the gorgeous weather we've been having I'll be putting them all outside for daytime to get them ready for their full outdoor time once we hit 60s for lows. Many of them have developed their first squares but are still quite small for now. #growingcotton #cottonsprouts #cottonseedlings #cottonplants #smithbrothers #recyling #growingfiber
