Art Yarn from a Blending Board with Locks, Auto Wrap/Corespun! Real Time Spinning and Blending!

[@seekingtoremain]

This was exactly what my Tuesday afternoon needed! For a name, what about Scratch Art - you know those papers that are all black and then you use a wooden stylus to reveal the bright colors underneath

[@crazybird6821]

i agree with the previous pillow comments

[@michelleatwell8580]

I know lots of folks love art yarn, but it gives me anxiety. That’s what I love about this channel. You have something for everyone.

[@lydiamashcka4362]

You should call the yarn Aurora Borealis.

[@karonroach790]

It's always a better day when Trish has put up a video!

[@tracybarger7822]

I can NOT wait to see the yarn worked into the final project. Again- showing us the process gives us courage to try. Thanks

[@jenthulhu]

Trish, you are just so freakin awesome. I'm six minutes in and I'm just so here for this.

[@crochetsensei3353]

Oh Wow! I’ve just found you at 2am waiting for my beautiful Ragdoll girl to give birth. Your video caught my eye because I have a super fine black merino and her paddock buddy us a Moorit (brown) Corriedale. I’ve wanted to spin for years. I have the same wheel you have used in this video but am lacking the confidence to “just do it!” You make it seem easy(I know it’s not and will take me many hours to master) but I seem to have all the gear: fleeces, carding drum, mini picker and an amazing 6’ triangle loom I was gifted during lockdown! Thanks for the video, I’m probably going to watch them all while doing my midwifery for my darling girl!

[@louisepearson5723]

Hi Trish Love your Chanel. Really love the idea of a tribe that loves all sorts of different fibre like I do. I’m in Australia and we suffer the merino-ness but with effort other breeds can be found and celebrated. I also love the ideology of fibre leading the prep, spinning & final article. I recently binged your breed study 2021, so interesting thanks. LOVE that there is no wrong in fibre art. Thanks again for all your energy!! Louise

[@FiberLoveDiary]

Thank you so much, Louise!

[@morgankilkenny1895]

That yarn is beautiful! Anything you make would be great, but my official vote is PILLOW!!

[@sylvanwoods5271]

Looks like Voodoo Magic!!! Love this!

[@stonewallsfarm3105]

Pillow! Fun to watch. Good to see you. Art yarns are so fun to make and hold (and collect on a shelf). They do lend themselves to weaving way more than knitting. (Boo😢). Looking forward to seeing the project.

[@FiberLoveDiary]

I've been thinking about using them in crochet, and if i do I'll film it for sure!

[@peterivkovich2314]

from Gerry- I finally did my first auto-wrap on my Ashford jumbo e-spinner. It was fun. I love watching you work. There is always something to learn. Thanks so much and have a blessed Easter.

[@tinka4243]

What a lovely yarn! I wish I could reach into the monitor, grab it and run and hide to pet this beauty! 😍

[@raesyarnaddiction]

It’s sooooo beautiful! Core spinning! I didn’t think of that! 🤦‍♀️ Ohhhhh it’s sooooo beautiful! 😍 Hhhmmmmm 🤔 Unicorn 🦄 Tales! That’s what I think you should call it! 🖤🧶🖤

[@avalontampsett5023]

Yes I love art yarn, my husband is the weaver. The result are so colourful.

[@nz-nz]

What a fun spin!!! At the end when you were holding the yarn up, it reminded me of dreadlocks… I think you should call the yarn: reggae.

[@michelezunker5029]

It was fun to watch you use the blending board versus your drum carder. You brought a nice pop of color into my day today.

[@jewelsinterests]

❤Yarn is cute! Can't wait to see what you make from it!🎉

[@scriptgoddess]

Hey friend. I am not a fan of art yarn, nor have I ever been drawn to working with locks. I'm grateful for the video (which I watched all the way through) as it cemented that fact for me. Right now, that is. I reserve the right to change my mind in the future - rewatch this video, and try try try! I appreciate you - thanks!

[@Lilfare]

I love these colors. I also see hulk vibes.

[@victoriasandrews9996]

Love the spinning videos the most. Love how this worked up. Please weave a scarf.

[@valeriegeorgevitch3876]

Great video -- thanks!!! You made art yarn look so do-able -- I like the locks sticking out!!! That would be pretty as an accent in a scarf!!

[@rujoby]

I love spinning

[@eqrain21]

It reminds me of neon signs at night. I'm so intimidated by the art yarn now. It was the first thing I really wanted to spin but seeing other's beautiful stuff and mine being so hit or miss has deterred me a lot. I like most of my plain spins a lot but my art yarns go wrong a lot more often. I probably just need the right fiber maybe. I think I try too hard to make it be an art yarn rather than letting it happen naturally. I did a random batt with a really random freeform drafting style and it was a lot of fun and I really liked the result.

[@QueenAnneKnitsandSews]

I've just rewatched this video because I want to make something like it for a Kaleidoscope Cardigan. It's so pretty!

[@blackcrowcottage]

Love, love, love! that yarn, its what I want to spin.

[@rockinrobin1975]

It was fun watching you spin art yarn! That was a fun one.

[@lauramcd680]

My first thought when I saw this yarn was Marti Gras! Party, party, party. It very pretty

[@coda_o7]

a scarf would be pretty. it looks so cool! the colors remind me of athletic wear

[@irinialexandridi3522]

That is funtastic. You should call it North Selas. I would love to see you turn it into a scarf.❤

[@natalielambert703]

it looks like Mardi Gras colors to me- a scarf or a cowl would be beautiful I think. Thanks for the video!

[@lorikula8227]

I think you should make a scarf so everyone can see it and enjoy it!!

[@franinvirginia4475]

Beautiful! This would make a wonderful pillow for your house.

[@sandrahageman9955]

Turned out beautifully. A pillow would be fun. I have some spindle spun fiber that I think might be nice woven.

[@squirrel777777]

That yarn is so gorgeous! I can’t wait to see what you create with it.

[@runtsgal]

I love wrapped spinning but never know what to do with those funky fun yarns. I’m looking forward to seeing what you end up doing with yours. I like the loose tails on this.

[@ritaorr766]

This was interesting to watch, I don't know if I'm skilled enough to spin 3 things together. I know how I'm going to spin the corriedale, I'll have to think on the locks. You've made a really pretty yarn.❤

[@jackiebrown7859]

That looked like a party on your blending board😁

[@oneofcreatorscreationeastm8462]

I'm really interested in seeing what you make once you spin the warp, a scarf or cowl will be pretty. Thanks for a great video!❤❤

[@ritaorr766]

I ended up running them through my drum carder, watching this gave me the idea. Thanks

[@kathybrownell5095]

That looks like fun! I think I'd call it "Witchy Wool"

[@jessicawright1656]

I love how this yarn turned out. I have never tried autowrap. It looks once the autowrap is attached it just does its thing.

[@kellywest2820]

I’ve never Auto wrapped before. That is something to try. I think it could make a cute hat.

[@michellemorin6258]

A scarf would be wonderful!

[@taniamitchell604]

As soon as I saw you start to spin I chuckled. I am so uncoordinated, I would have it all tangled and bunched, it would be a mess. In saying that it is lovely and would make a great pillow/cushion

[@charlot-temisery]

i can't wait to see it woven. you should definitely weave a pillow though, its too wild for a scarf.

[@ailienrhijnsburger5178]

Yay, a video from Trish! Just what I needed just now. 😊 So fun. Look forward to see what you are doing with that black top

[@dylanlloyd548]

That is sooooo beautiful, it would make an amazing pillow. Your no skill skills are inspiring x

[@beckyshook3526]

I really like how the locks look

[@shilpanagarkar2681]

It'll make a gorgeous pillow!

[@redmonika10]

I vote scarf. I think it would look cool with the different colors and texture.

[@LisaMyEclecticLife]

Enjoyed this video, it has got me wanting to get fun stuff out to play with this way. Blessings.

[@Rowanstarr]

So pretty.

[@FiberLoveDiary]

Thank you! 😊

[@rachelvroman1061]

So beautiful!!! When I finally feel like I might be comfortable trying my hand at art yarn I know I’ll be watching and rewatching all of these videos over and over again! ❤

[@madamesasquatch]

Nice. Gives me "Goth Spring" vibes haha

[@candygrubisic]

The Hulk or the Green Goblin :) Some of that green looks almost glow in the dark green on camera lol. I bet it would make a fun pillow. I haven't had my blending board out in awhile. I get that out more after getting the mill end bags. I've still never tried to make any sort of art yarn yet. I really should try it at least once lol.

[@teresac.m.355]

I love the way the yarn turned out. I will have to give it a go.

[@danielleh5911]

That’s making me want to pull out some dyed locks that have been languishing in my stash! I’d love to see that in a scarf… curious about what type of warp you’d use for that?

[@angeladent4175]

Beautiful yarn!

[@FiberLoveDiary]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@teenyw]

Name it the hulk! lol. I vote for a pillow- not sure how I would feel about all that texture on my neck.

[@lorim.8136]

Love it! I think a pillow would be really cute ;)

[@beverleylawton6899]

Another great video, thanks Trish. This is so inspiring and I have some black Corriedale at home, and some crazy locks…🤔 I am in hospital…stoma reversal surgery is happening tomorrow🫣 So I can dream about the crazy yarn I will make when I get home😂

[@TLL65]

Beverly, I am praying right now that your reversal surgery is successful and your recovery is a smooth one. Sweet dreams about your yarn. 😊~ Tami

[@beverleylawton6899]

Aww, thank you Tami😊🙏

[@jennycampbell1333]

That turned out quite neat 🐰

[@teresac.m.355]

I am excited to watch this process.

[@kalakgirl]

Thank you Trish

[@Redhead_Knitting]

I love this yarn so much!

[@CrazyMountain_Fiberworks]

I am still uncomfortable doing art yarn, just so use to consistent yarn. I am inspired now to give it a whirl

[@linr8260]

Mmmmmm love me some bright colours on black background. I'm terrified by corespinning, personally, compared to just drafting and spinning fiber. There's just too much to keep track of. Anyway my submission for the name is Back To The Future, and I definitely vote pillow, I think those pops of colour would be an instant little burst of cheerfulness in any day, and black goes with everything.

[@katlynkoester]

It is such a fun yarn! I haven't done mine up yet, I was going to use the fiber and the locks in other ways, but I will definitely need to try some fun textured yarn at some point!

[@categ50]

A friend of mine lent me a book by Jacey Boggs called Spin Art. Wow! All the different art yarns you can spin! Most of the projects are beyond my skills🤔, but I will def try some of them. I just ordered some locks from Compass.

[@nicolewillis5998]

Absolutely love it! Wish I had a wheel with a bigger orfice to make my own.

[@kimbryan2014]

so fun weave a pillow

[@StitchingNana]

That is really fun yarn. I need to try spinning like that.

[@13heylady]

The first thing I thought was Guardians of the galaxy 😂 I would make a pillow 😁

[@beccab888]

So so gorgeous thanks for tutorial!

[@TLL65]

I’d love to see you make a pillow out of this. Such a beautiful, art yarn you’ve made!~ Tami 😊

[@smurfie161]

😍😍 wow this so cool love this

[@jannelleglover2150]

It came out so pretty!

[@IJRoz]

As always a very interesting video!

[@deejcarter2003]

Oh Trish, this is gorgeous. What about calling it Mardi Gras?

[@leoniemoran5346]

I need to get my blending board out and have some fun.

[@rachelvroman1061]

I think you should name it kore. It reminds me of springtime in the underworld.

[@trinadaguerre8436]

Love this, excited to get my yarn from you

[@carrietreder8474]

OH. I blended mine on the drum carder and now I understand why that didn’t work! Making those massive rolags is definitely the way to go. I already used the black wool in something else, so I’ll use gray or white.

[@idamis4135]

Oooh, I love art yarns! I'd really like to make some myself, but I'm worried I'll never have a use for them.

[@robinboston5948]

Turned out pretty, I don't know what I would call it. I am going to try it soon. Thanks.

[@bonnielundholm5535]

It's gorgeous!

[@lesleyrichard888]

Thank you, Trish, for sharing your process. I think a scarf would be lovely, a loosely woven one, and love the Mardi Gras name suggestion. I am about to learn how to spin. Do you have any suggestions on great beginners how to book?

[@katherinesmith6820]

Looks like fun!

[@holly3442]

I’m loving the idea of art yarn. I have seen it a lot and tried a few but did it all wrong LOL I wish I had started with core spinning, instead I jumped right into bee hive 🤦🏻‍♀️ it was atrocious lol confession though, I have only been spinning for a year so I am still fairly new. Also, I notice you mix up some new music, sounds good 👍🏼

[@wendykthefiberwench4596]

Thank you for this!

[@rujoby]

I think april box coming soon...

[@renaalbright6201]

I love it

[@ginaheutink968]

Nice

[@barbaradunn104]

Does one have to use the auto wrap step? That is, why not leave it as core spun? Love your videos as well as your whimsical delivery.

[@FiberLoveDiary]

My next video will show core spinning without auto wrapping. Sometimes I just want to introduce another color and more interest.

[@trinadaguerre8436]

Black magic

[@michelleatwell8580]

I have a traveler and NEED a woolee winder

[@Nevicica]

Omg your scarf is so pretty! It s exactly what I want to do! Did you kept the original reed of the loom or did you buy another? I've looked into it but I m lost! And what s the thread you re using ?

[@leeroddy6034]

Would you please tell us who makes the Amish swift and the piece that you have your bobbins on? I love that they are beautifully worked wood pieces.
