OH MY SQUEEEE!!!!! This adorable Dendrobates tinctorius ‘Green Sipaliwini’ hopped on over from @ex.oblivione.art. I'm in awe over how awesome it is! The colors, the way it's painted, and its shape are so spot-on. To see more adorable painted resin froggies hop on over to Sandra's page @ex.oblivione.art and to see incredible photos of the real life froggies hop on over to @iammakingart. #frogs #frogsofinstagram #dartfrogsofinstagram #amphibiansofinstagram #herpetology #dendrobates #greensipaliwini

This bobbin with the TdF gradient set by @fossilfibers is such a happy bobbin. All the colors are just so beautiful. I need to get around to balling these singles so I can 2 ply them. They are destined to be woven with. The apron used as the background for this photo was made by @lidiacallanaupaalvarez of Chinchero. Purchased through @centro_textiles_cusco / @abbysyarns. #igspinnersinspiration #spinnersofinstagram #handspunwool #handspinnersofig #yarnspinnersofinstagram #wemakeyarn #spinnersoftheworld #spinningyarn #handspun #handspinnersofinstagram #weavingwithhandspun #daedalusspinningwheels #daedalusstarling #fossilfibers #fossilfiberstdf22

I adore spindles so much but it wasn't always that way! After I got my first spinning wheel I stopped spindle spinning as I didn't see a point to it anymore. It wasn't until I acquired my first @jenkinsspindles that I fell back in love with spindles and ever since then my spindle collection has grown and grown. I currently have 11 spindle works in progress and a variety of sample spinning. I always have at least a few spindle projects going that usually take up several spindles and love to take them wherever I go. Textiles - All the textiles you see in displayed were spindle spun and woven via backstrap by weavers of @centro_textiles_cusco. I am in complete awe over their spinning and weaving skills. They are a constant inspiration to me. Textiles were purchased through @abbysyarns and CTTC. Spindlemakers include @akerworks, @brewergnome, @carry.cherry, @classysquidfiberco, @jenkinsspindles, @jeribrock, and the pushkas were made by a maker in Peru purchased through @abbysyarns #abbysyarns #franquemontuniversity #andeanweaving #andeanbackstrap #backstrapweaving #peruvianspindle #pushka #chacchac #chajchaj #khaitu #Jenkinsspindles #turkishspindle #JenkinsTurkishSpindle #spindlespinning #spindlersofinstagram #akerworks #akerworks #jeribrockwoodworks #gnomewoodcreations #gnomespunyarn
