With a nearly impossible task set before me of threading wires through a small hole during some hot end assembly repair on Almighty Tallest an @akerworks Whale threader saved the day! It is now known as whaling wires through a hole rather than fishing wires through a hole. I couldn’t have completed this task without the Whale! Hot End assembly is no longer clogged, pristinely cleaned, new thermocoupler as well as new fan installed. #3dprinting #raise3dn2plus #akerworks

This spin is going to be a much needed ray of sunshine! Beautiful spindles were made by @carry.cherry and the ray of sunshine was dyed by @threewatersfarm.

My Honeybee spindle arrived from @carry.cherry!!!! She took awhile to get here but was well worth the wait. The spindle and painting is so beautiful and I’m overjoyed that adding this beauty to my collection helped a wonderful cause to support bees. My very first spin with this and the Ladybug spindle will be this golden bundle of happy by @threewatersfarm. The colorway is Sunshiny Day on Merino/Superwash Merino/Silk . 🐞💛🐝 #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #twfjan20 #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #carrycherryspindle

Dave of @daedalusspinningwheels is prepping a special delivery for me of all the non 3d printed parts for me to build my own Magpie. It’s incredible to build my own and I love being able to provide not only spinner related feedback to Dave but also feedback as a maker in regards to the printing and assembly process. This particular bird is going to push me even farther when my printing as it’s much larger than the Blackbird and I’ll be playing with four colors to play off the beauty of the Black-billed Magpie. It’s going to be a fun adventure! Stay tuned for more updates on this birdie! Original bird photograph was taken by Fyn Kynd and is the most gorgeous photo of these beautiful birds I came across. #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #magpiespinner #electricspinningwheel #daedalusspinningwheels #3dprinting

Here’s a closer look at the Rainbow Palace skein. Total yardage after washing was about 970 yards at 18-20 WPI. Fiber is BFL/Silk dyed by @threewatersfarm in the colorway Rainbow Palace. #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #twfjan20 #Big18JenkinsSpin #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday

Here it is! All 8 oz of Rainbow Palace spun on 18 of my Jenkins spindles over the course of Tour de Fleece 2018 up to the end of December 2019. I love how beautiful the 8 oz 3 yard skeins look. I used to skein at 1.5 yards and it made these big skeins look so frumpy. Total yardage after washing was about 970 yards at 18-20 WPI.

This spindle makes me so happy! I thought I had missed out on getting one of @carry.cherry’s Ladybug Turkish. It’s such a fitting design for me with my love for bugs especially ladybugs. I’ve been talking with Galina about her spindles and how she uses beeswax from her family’s bees. I had purchased one of her Bee themed spindles a few weeks ago and it’s on its journey across the world to me. I love that purchasing that spindle help support bees local to her. I just recently I purchased this Ladybug one from her via @thewooleryshop which had much less distance to travel. I also picked up this gorgeous Sunshiny Day braid from @threewatersfarm out of Merino/Silk that will be the inaugural spin for my very first spindles from Galina. It’s going to be such a wonderful happy spin. 🐞💛🐝 #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #twfjan20 #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #carrycherryspindle

All skeined up!!!! I know many of you have been waiting to see this super happy yarn all skeined up. More photos to come! This skein was 8 oz so I decided to skein it at 3 yards on my Super Skeiner which allows for a prettier twisted skein than if I had skeined it at 2 yards.

I love how massive the Starlings XL bobbin is. Still plenty of room! I’m so happy I decided to make yellow bobbins. The black ones are pretty cool and go with everything but the yellow is just such a happy color. 🐝💛 #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #twfjan20 #Big18JenkinsSpin #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #starlingspinner #daedalusspinningwheels #starlingxl

Being able to see my yarn through beautifully patterned bobbin ends makes my heart sing! This particular bobbin on my @daedalusspinningwheels Starling XL was custom designed and printed by me after one of my favorite kinds of flowers, Dahlias. I designed these to tide me over on flowery bobbins until @Akerworks makes compatible bobbins. As soon as he has compatible ones I’m going to kit both my Starlings with Lotus bobbins. #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #twfjan20 #Big18JenkinsSpin #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #starlingspinner #daedalusspinningwheels #starlingxl

All of my spindle spins are wheel plied. I love the ability to ply a whole project as one skein rather than several smaller ones. This means I can use up as much of the yarn as possible when using it for a knitting project. My Big 18 Jenkins Flock Spin was chain plied starting with the inside of the Swan’s turtle and then continued on in the same order I spun them to preserve the color changes. In the past I exclusively chain plied on my Aura but have gotten used to the technique on my Starlings which gives a major boost to portability even during plying which is a huge plus! You can see here the remnants of one of my turtles... no worries all turtles behaved and no singles were lost! I know a lot of folks worry about plying directly from the turtles but with practice and experience it becomes much easier and of course saves time which is something I feel is so important. #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #twfjan20 #Big18JenkinsSpin #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #starlingspinner #daedalusspinningwheels #starlingxl

SQUEEEE!!!! I’m so excited to finally be able to share this with you all. I will be attending PLYAWAY this year!!!! Dave and Becca of @daedalusspinningwheels and @spottedewefibers have graciously invited me to stay with them for Plyaway. When I’m not exploring, taking photos, and making purchases I will be found helping out at the Daedalus booth demoing my Starla the Starlings Mini as well as the brand new Magpie! I’m extremely excited and thankful for this opportunity. There are so many wonderful fibery folk that I’m looking forward to getting to meet in person for the first time. If you are going to Plyaway please let me know. I’m making a list of all the people I’m hoping to see when I go. 😄 (fiber in photo is by @huckleberryknits ) #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #daedalusspinningwheels #spottedewefibers #plyaway #plyaway2020 #huckleberryknits

The first and last spindle of my big Flock Spin. It amazes me still how I can spin the same weight on both spindles. The Swan weighs 41g and the Bee Hummingbird weighs 3.28g. I love that I can use my flock for a single project letting each one stretch out their wings to fly. ❤️🐢 #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #twfjan20 #Big18JenkinsSpin #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday

The 18th and final spindle for the Flock Spin series is my wee bonnie Bee Hummingbird made of Beeswing Narra. This spindle only weighs 3.28 grams and has the last 7 grams of the spin on it. The Bees are incredible spinners and it amazes me how Ed has created something so delicately tiny. #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #twfjan20 #Big18JenkinsSpin #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday

The 15th spindle in the series is my Lilac Kuchulu. This little spindle captured my heart the moment I saw Ed Jenkins place it out on display. I picked it up immediately, admired the adorable ladybugs and beautiful wood, and never let it go.

On the twelfth day of #spin15aday12days I arranged all my spinning I had done. I’m so overjoyed with finally finishing my #big18jenkinsspin and to finally start working on my advent spins. I finished four spindles for the big Flock Spin, plied it all up, and then started these four Spins from my Advents. I’ll have more photos of the Flock Spin to come. ❤️ #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #inglenookfibersadvent #inglenookfibers #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #hipstrings #base12sal

This is such a fun photo that @the1764shepherdess captured of me carding up some gorgeous brown Merino that @seattlesuzer brought to play with. I swear no carding of my own hair was involved 🤣 #Repost @the1764shepherdess with @get_repost ・・・ . The best fiber view today at the St. Distaff’s spin-in hosted by @nwregionalspinners at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe, Washington. . Peeking through the spokes of the 1920 CPW I had just purchased from the used equipment sale, chatting with @bionickristie @slantedstitches @seattlesuzer as we watched @evanitaewm card merino on cotton carders. I could possibly be a bit jealous that I can’t sit cross-cross applesauce very well any more. . Also got a few minutes of chat in with @schmutzerella @allenrberry @yarnengineer . So many wheels to admire, so many fascinating spinners. . Today was just a reminder that life with wool is pretty damn good! . P.S. I named him “Golder the CPW.” Golder for short. He once had the traditional yellow wheel and two owners before me stripped off that yellow as I heard she didn’t like it. There are still traces of the original color which gives a bit of a golden yellow tone. Shame on her though he’s perfect for me as he now is! . #spin15aday #stdistaffsday #stdistaffsday2020 #canadianproductionwheel #golderthecpw

My favorite photo from St. Distaff’s Day today. We had a small meet up of @daedalusspinningwheels owners. Unfortunately only two of us could make it but it was still awesome to seen another fellow birder. My trio of birds plus Peter’s Starling XL(Black/Silver). It looks like they are ready for take off in a big hanger bay! 😂 #daedalusspinningwheels #electricspinningwheel #spinnersofinstagram #spinallthethings #spinallthefiber #spinstagram #espinner #spinningwheel #spinningyarn #fleece2yarn #handspunstagram #igspinners #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #3dprinting #starlingspinner #daedalusblackbird #blackbirdespinner #stdistaffsday #stdistaffsday2020

On the Eleventh day of #spin15aday12days here’s progress with a bag 🤣 this is what happens when I go to St. Distaff’s Day. I bring all the fun @akerworks toys and now @daedalusspinningwheels too for anyone to play with. This was after I tidied up my mess to get it back under control. To much surprise I actually spun quite a bit today despite the 3 miles my watch says I walked today. #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #stdistaffsday #stdistaffsday2020 #akerworks #daedalusspinningwheels

On the 9th day of #spin15aday12days I finished plying and skeined up my Flock Spin. Unfortunately can’t place it by the fire while lit as our upgrade to tankless water heater takes up enough gas to not be allowed to use the fireplace except during power outages. Water heater upgrade was worth it though. ❤️ #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #jenkinsturkishspindle #twfdec19 #Big18JenkinsSpin #threewatersfarm #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday

The LAST TURTLE!!!!!!!!! So far plying has been relatively smooth and even the few yarn barfs were easily managed. This wee little turtle is the freshest of the bunch and I’ll be taking it a bit slower as it might want to cause a little trouble. Luckily it’s only 7.1g so it’ll go be quick regardless.

On the 8th day of #spin15aday12days I realized I missed taking a photo of the bobbin on the 7th day. It was entirely purple as seen in my 2019 group photo. I only have 4 turtles left to ply!

Every year I end the year with a group photo of everything spinning related I did that year. I got a bit of a late start on gathering everything together. It always surprises me just how much everything piles up when I put it all together. 2019 was full of surprises and I certainly didn’t anticipate that I would have an espinner! The three @daedalusspinningwheels pictured here I made thanks to Dave and they totally threw all of my spinning expectations for this year out the window 🤣 I spun and plied nearly 30 oz of yarn on my Starlings! That’s not including the plying I’m currently doing on Bumbles. I finally finished spinning the Big 18 Jenkins Flock Spin ans will have that hopefully all plied up today or tomorrow. I acquired several new spindles and played with dyeing my own handspun thanks to @woolwench’s incredible dyeing techniques she shared through TinyStudio. I still have a lot of existing spinning projects to finish and I hope to finish them this year. #daedalusspinningwheels #spottedewefibers #spinnersofinstagram #spinallthethings #spinallthefiber #spinstagram #espinner #spinningyarn #handspunstagram #igspinners #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #starlingspinner #allenberryspindle #judithmackenzie #blackbirdespinner #akerworks #akerworksmodularspindle #jenkinsturkishspindle #aaronmakesstuff #threewatersfarm #twfjan20 #woolgatherings #huckleberryknits #greenwoodfiberworks
