Currently setup with Scotch tension but it can be changed to double drive and new to me Irish tension too!

The latest spinning wheel has arrived. Flat packed from Colorado. The assembly is taking a bit but I’m enjoying it. All the advice from others who have bought one it to take your time with the assembly. So between the instructions and YouTube video it’s going well. Or took me to do stages 1-5 in about and hour and a half. Got stages 6 and 6 to go.

The lovely slow weaving process. Im using a wide comb as suggested by to gently beat the warp on my handspun Corriedale yarn singles. I’m definitely making myself a warp weighted loom this winter.

Im loving the look texture of the shawl and it will look lovely once washed and fulled out a bit.

I got a little weaving done last night after I finished warping up the loom. It’s an open weave and I’m using a comb rather than the heddle to beat the weft. Once it’s off the loom and washed the singles will fill out and close the gaps a little. I love the subtle check pattern.

All the singles are spun and the loom’s on its way to being warped. The fire’s crackling — it’s a cold night, perfect for settling in with wool and old-world inspiration.

Home spun warmth, by request.
Dark brown Corriedale, cream Romney, and silvery grey Gotland—three natural fleece shades from Western Australian-raised sheep, hand spun and knitted into fingerless gloves for my youngest teenager. They asked for them, choose the pattern, they love them, and that makes my maker’s heart very happy.

Preparing the caramel Corriedale wool for spinning using my small English combs. Combing removes the short fibres and helps align the rest, making it easier to spin a smooth, even yarn.

It’s a simple process, but satisfying — one step closer to getting this wool onto the wheel.
