Hi. That combing kit looks very nice. How much would a setup like this take me back? Would the same set also be suitable for processing flax? (Actually I'm working with nettle fiber, but no one seems to have a clue to what I'm talking about I say flax instead, which I hear has somewhat similar properties.)
@helenbrown8572
@helenbrown8572 7 жыл бұрын
Grunde Grimstad for flax you need more of a 'bed' of sharp pointy things. If it is a similar process to flax you also need to rett and bash the fibres before combing (sorry if you already know that bit) the last last step is combing it :)

@PhantomQueenOne
@PhantomQueenOne 8 жыл бұрын
+catlover12670 It's two separate things. To get true worsted you comb and the fibers are kept lined up tip to butt (the butt being closest to the skin of the animal) as you spin. As you comb, the tips must always kept with the tips, and butts always with the butts.The resulting yard is often used to make a flat smooth woven cloth (think a worsted wool coat or pants). Semi-worsted is combed as well, but you don't worry about carefully aligning tip to butt as you spin. This yard can be woven, crocheted, or knitted and is loftier and more poofy. Carded wool is done on cards only and is spun 'long draw' method, and produces poofy airy yarn for things like scarves, hats and the like because the air pockets provide more insulation. I normally comb semi-worsted (if I don't just buy combed top roving), and spin 'short-draw'. It's sort of poofy, but doesn't have the loft of carded 'long-draw' yarn. I'm a semi-novice, so semi-worsted is easier for me. And the fleeces I got weren't even skirted properly, just pulled apart and shoved into trash bags. Well, it was free I wasn't going to argue with that. Man scouring those fleeces... Arizona sandy loose soil and lanolin equals one _flithy_ fleece. Yuk! I swear I must have removed several pounds of just plain dirt. I thought a sheep's fleece would be soft and fluffy, but their wool is stiff from lanolin and dirt! Hey, I never touched a sheep except the ones from 4-H which are kept bathed and clipped. Most people don't cover their sheep here unless they are show animals. It's hard to imagine the wool from a Suffolk sheep is really a creamy white under all that dirt (besides the leg wool, which is brown black that is). But their wool is crimpy and easy for a beginner to spin. If you've ever touched an African American's hair it has that same bouncy-soft feeling to it. It may not be the finest wool out there like Merino, but it makes up into nice hats, scarves and even nice thick slipper-socks. I don't find it itchy (except when I start to sweat), and I inhered my Grandfather's sensitive redhead skin if not the red hair itself.

catlover12670 It's quite nice, and comes in a variety of natural colors from white to black. I got black at a knitting/spinning store about an 1 1/2 away because it's hard to get a good black with dye. If you like a wide variety of dye that is easy to work with use Jacquard dye. All you need is a big stockpot (I use an enamel tamale pot) water, and vinegar. Make sure you have all the fiber you need to dye because each batch will dye different and don't tie the skeins to tight or you will get tye-dye (which is kind of pretty, but may not be what you are after (oops!) . I _have_ done tye-dyed wool skeins in the microwave, it turned out awesome! You might want a set of cheapo measuring spoons and big plastic spoon for just dye from a dollar store, you _don't_ want to use them for anything else, trust me. Yuck! I *don't* want that in my food! Jacquard only works on protein fibers though (like wool, silk and rayon), it _will not_ work on cellulose fibers (like cotton, bamboo, or hemp). I got mine from Dharma Trading (www.dharmatrading.com/) so many arts and crafts supplies in one spot and just plain good peeps. I got a pound of combed top from them, (I can't remember what breed of sheep though) but it is some high quality stuff, and spins up really nice and soft. They even have drop spindles. Really affordable price wise on their supplies too.

You probably could, but I don't think you'd want to. For starters, those combs are SHARP. It's best not to have them sticking out when you aren't focused on them. And second, the fiber doesn't always come off that easily and sometimes you need to adjust your grip and your tension. Much easier to just pull it off first!
