I usually buy fleece and do my own preparation. For that I use my mini combs and my carders. I try to use as much of the fiber as possible and make as little waste as possible.<\/p>\n

I do love combing. The way the wool transforms from separated staples to a fluffy bundle is like magic. And drawing the fiber off the comb in a long, continuous piece is very satisfying.<\/p>\n

\"A
Shetland wool combed into bird’s’ nests<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The longer fibers align themselves into that long combed piece. But usually there is an amount of shorter fibers left in the combs. I pull these out, one pinch at \u00a0time, and card. The nepps and noils stay in the combs and I use this waste in the garden.<\/p>\n

\"Two
Combed wool in the back basket shorter comb leftovers pulled off the comb in the front basket. In the front carded rolags and mini combs with leftover shorter fibers. All from the same Shetland fleece.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I follow the same routine when I card, but without making the combed bird’s nests. I lightly comb the fleece I want to card, pull it off the combs one pinch at a time and then card. This way, I use the combs for teasing the wool. It is much faster and nicer than teasing\u00a0each staple with a flicker, which I used to do. And now I love carding too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
