\"Close-up
Yummy Swedish finewool (scoured) from Solkustens spinnverkstad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The first ever fleece I bought was from the Swedish finewool sheep Pia-Lotta at \u00d6verj\u00e4rva g\u00e5rd<\/a>. She was a lamb back then and it was the wool I learned to spin with. I have managed to get hold of her fleece twice more (the last time I shore her myself). Finewool has become my house fiber. It is the fiber I feel most comfortable spinning and my hearts jumps a beat whenever I get my hands on finewool fluff.<\/p>\n

At the wool traveling club<\/a>‘s wool journey 2016 I bought some really yummy finewool at Solkustens spinnverkstad<\/a> and a couple of days ago I started preparing it for spinning. I know it is a year later, but that’s my fleece queue at the moment \u2013 one year from purchase to process if I keep the queue order.<\/p>\n

A good finewool fleece is really crimpy with superfine fibers. It is moderate in lanolin and usually only needs scouring in cold water before processing. It is wonderfully soft, silky to the touch and a very good candidate for carding for a warm and airy woolen yarn. The ends can be a bit brittle and break in the preparation. Therefore it’s a good idea to make sure that doesn’t happen, to avoid nepps and noils in your yarn. I flick card the tip ends of every staple. Any brittle tips stay in the flick card instead of in the yarn.<\/p>\n

I have spun my first yarn in this fiber from hand-carded rolags on my spinning wheel and I love the result.<\/p>\n

I also plan to make a 3-ply yarn spun on a Navajo spindle. When I spun this yarn on the wheel, I realized that I have learned so much about long draw from spinning on a Navajo spindle. I wouldn’t have been able to spin singles this consistent if I hadn’t practiced long draw as much as I have on the Navajo spindle. At that insight, my heart skips a beat again.<\/p>\n

Happy spinning!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
