Spinning Auto Wrapped Corespun Art Yarn from Blended Combed Top - Paradise March 2022 Subscription

[@gerryivkovich1857]

I have always loved the heathered effect that a drum carder produces. They are really pretty now. Good thinking! Blessings.

✨I love spinning✨ ✨ i love yarn✨ ✨I love fiber hobbies ✨ 💖Just so much fun 💖

[@avalontampsett5023]

I have finally learned to Navaho ply. So pleased with my self.

[@ailienrhijnsburger5178]

Yay, well done!

[@sadiesspincraft6319]

I'm the same as you with these types of blends I would strip all the colours and then make bundles of smaller parts to get it striping the put ut on 3 bobbins and do a 3 ply or all on 1 bobbin qnd chain ply it, and I don't like singles either or art yarns lol but this yarn turn out amazing. I think your hair looks lovely 😍 xx

[@emmasmom60]

I loved how your blended batts turned out! I think I liked the less blended ones the best. I suck at corespinning. I have to figure out how not to get too much twist in my core.

[@morgankilkenny1895]

Oh my gosh that is so incredible. I feel exactly how you described feeling about the original fiber, and that feeling is what holds me back from subscriptions. You have me seriously rethinking the Paradise box, because you turned "I would cry if I'd paid for that box and that fiber showed up at my door" into "I must have it, I wonder if anyone is destashing it on Ravelry....". So, so amazing.

[@amymiller9189]

I really like how the yarn turned out ❣️You have such a creative spirit and I always learn something from your videos! You make me want to buy All the toys 😜. And your hair looks Great ❤️

[@elizabethscott3218]

I know! But I'm running out of room.

[@OoOlijfje]

Very cool! Sometimes, the journeys that take us "not where we thought they would" take us to very interesting places!

[@bonniemcgee6648]

Love the way the drum carder changes the outcome of the fibre, then beautiful into hand spun.

[@jennycampbell1333]

Love the glitter yarns 🦄

[@valeriegeorgevitch3876]

Trish -- we always care!!! Thanks for sharing -- I actually spun up the April first and have the March to spin -- so this is good timing for me .... your ideas always help me make up my mind on how to attack the fiber .....Love he bag of fun - I am drooling. You did Dr. Suess proud -- what fun yarn .... Looks like Rainbow Sherbert!!

[@nadinesmith-jensen7732]

Wow 🤩 that is a beautiful finish product!!!!! Very beautiful and almost reminds me of a fairy 🧚‍♀️!!!! Sending love your way 🧶🥰

[@kellywest2820]

I can’t believe you got those colors from what you started with. Amazing.

[@sally9123]

I’d never seen core spinning before. Fascinating. Thank you

[@teacat55]

The pastel qualities of your blends are so beautiful! And I really like that haircut, I wish I knew how you do it to your own hair in the back especially.

[@jeaniefenner3386]

Love to watch the process from fluffy colors to beautiful yarns! Thank you for sharing, and for your explanations of using different equipment and why.

[@jackiebrown7859]

It came out really pretty. Everytime I see a batt or any fiber with tons of pink, all I can think of is rolls of insulation. Thats just where my brain goes🤣. Its so pretty but my brain would think if I touched it I would go into itchy fits🤪

[@Which-Craft]

hahaha! I get it, but this fiber is merino blend and really soft. No asbestos! ;)

[@christineclothier5773]

pretty really love the surprise factor when spinning you just never know what you end up with.

[@mariestock8070]

That Color looks like a baby blanket in the making

[@rowenabooth14]

Not sure this is my cup of tea but it’s interesting to learn new spinning techniques. I’m still practicing my chain ply but wouldn’t have even tried it if it wasn’t for your segment on it. Thanks Trish for all you do.

[@lorim.8136]

It’s amazing how a carder can rearrange the fibres into so many different colour patterns. 💕

[@elizabethernest]

Wow, that is so amazing and super sparkly too! The batts made some really lovely blends of color. I have really enjoyed seeing how different everyone's yarn has turned out with the neon packages we got in Feb and March, no two have been alike.

[@lindapollaerts5168]

That was a bag full with beautiful goodies😉Beautiful yarn,

[@SmallFossy]

Love your approach to make it something you’ll love! The different blends turned out so pretty! Love the less blended and the green one a lot.

[@karenr2874]

Fantastic! I have been feeling overwhelmed by this colorway but now feel like I am ready to jump in and go for it!

[@jeanbadeaux1486]

Love it!! I need to start spreading my wings when it comes to my spinning. Hopefully I'll be able to make it Sunday cause I miss ya'll lots! Love you too 😘🐑🥰

[@pamelamatt1441]

I absolutely love the new fiber! Beautiful. Still more to watch but wow so far amazing the change!

[@melaniehuhta8853]

So interesting! That did not spin up like I expected it to. Great demo on Belding and color theory. Thanks Trish!

[@ailienrhijnsburger5178]

I loved your blending experiment! Such amazing colours you got too. Like Tracy said, I would have never thought thr colours you got after blending would have come from the roving you started with! They really remind me of the rovings John Arbon (a spinning company in the UK) sells. I would have loved to spin each of those blends. Not sure I am a big fan of art yarns full stop, but I really loved seeing how you did it - and admiring your skill. It looked super hard juggling all those different components at the same time. Don't think I will be trying thaf anytime soon on my Turkish spindle... 😂

[@sandrahageman9955]

Neat to see how difficult this PF yarn can be prepared. I left the colors very bright since they are right up a girl friend’s alley.

[@avalontampsett5023]

The fibre turned our great,thank you for showing me.

[@theayalas2181]

I wish my bats would come out as lovely as your do!!

[@erinmshipley]

That yarn is delicious. The first pink-ish bundle reminded me of cereal milk after eating fruit loops or fruity pebbles. :)

[@deejcarter2003]

What a neat way to approach this fiber🥰

[@tinka4243]

OMG Lovely! I never would have imagined that these strong colours can be spun in such beautiful yarn!

[@jessicawright1656]

That turned out different than I expected. Great technique idea! I thought your hair was cute.

[@ritaorr766]

I so love the way you start your videos 😍🙃

[@katlady1019]

It’s amazing to so all the variations from one top! Very nice!

[@bonnielundholm5535]

So many lovely colors! the finished yarn is amazing. I would love to see it knit up into something.

[@amymcatee5885]

Beautiful result! I love how many paths a fiber can take and end up in so many different places.

[@Which-Craft]

and that end yarn is soooooooooo sweet!

[@tracybarger7822]

What a great idea. I would have trouble with bright colors and it was great to see how the blending softened them. So so interesting!

[@dexterlovesannie]

Love the yarn! Am eyeing up a bag of coloured top thinking I might do the same lol. Love the hair too but you know I'm a 70's child 🤣

[@teresac.m.355]

That yarn turned out amazing!

[@shadowcat5889]

Gotta love color theory

[@kachsavage4047]

Wow, the variations that came out of that technique are so much more apparent than I would have expected. If all I saw were before and after pictures of the fibre and the finished yarn, I don't think I could fathom that they were the same. Thank you for sharing!

[@runtsgal]

Hi from the UK. I have been working my way through your back catalogue for a while now which I am really enjoying, and finally I remembered to hit subscribe 😁. I have to try this.

[@beverleylawton6899]

Wow what amazing blends you got! This was so informative- thank you. I was fascinated watching you corespin and autowrap … I have just started playing at art yarns and have yet to have a go at it. 😊🙏

[@EdenGlenn]

I can't believe how that came out!!!!

[@Rowanstarr]

Those are so pretty. Love the silver

[@joelwilliams5634]

Wow your yarn turned out beautiful. Thanks for teaching me something new

[@delcodeb]

Love these ideas for the paradise box! I'm getting so many ideas from you

[@rockinrobin1975]

That was cool! I'm always too impatient to run my fiber thru the carder multiple times, but now I'm thinking I want to do more of it! Beautiful!

[@IJRoz]

A lot of different colors produced and the technique you used to spin onto the cord was interesting. I picture using this for an interesting weave of some sort.

[@emgaudier]

Genuinely gorgeous results -- I love how it's gone from EXTREME SEUSSIAN FEELS to pastel charcoals. Subscribed!

[@holly3442]

I have come across this many times and have passed by colour blends that I loved but through would be to candy stripy. Thank you for the experiment. I don’t have a drum carder myself but can rent one from my guild for a week at a time. I will start buying these blends 🤩 thanks Trish!

[@LDSVenus]

Wow, just wow! I have never done core spinning and am also not a singles kinda girl, but that core spinning is just beautiful! You are always full of so much creativity and new ways to do things. And oh, by the way, I love your hair cut ;).

[@holly3442]

I LOVE you hair like this!

[@lmchatwin77]

It turned out beautiful, I love it.

[@aliciazdavis7674]

Very interesting results. Definitely not what I expected, but still pretty!

[@redmonika10]

So cool! Sparkleys! Neat way of making yarn. Never tried to core spin.

[@jujuridl]

Huzzah! I can see something very fun woven from that yarn! Easter table runner?

[@QuzieSuzieQ]

Love how this turned out!

[@teresac.m.355]

I like the minty blue one

[@jocelynwirth5414]

Thank you for giving me some ideas for using my drum carder. I also get the Paradise boxes, and I think it's time for some experimentation.

[@katlynkoester]

Love how the colors look! Really beautiful way to use that fiber! 💖

[@erinturner424]

I need that in my life

[@candygrubisic]

The "sunset vibe" one is my favorite I think but I like them all. Outside with fiber...nice. It snowed here again today. I didn't expect the shiny thread to show and make it glitter as much as it did. That would probably be pretty in some sort of bag or woven wall hanging.

[@debkrieg4000]

Oooo agreed. I think it could weave into a cute, sparkly bag 👜 and Trish your hair looks great. lol re 70’s PTSD

[@elizabethscott3218]

That is a really unexpected blend of colors! I'm dying to pick up some of the April Cherry Blossom fiber now that it's available to the GP...

[@carlleegamble3744]

Thanks for the ideas. I didn't know what to do with the fiber. I am not comfortable with color. Pink is not me. The blending calmed down the brightness. Thanks again.

[@beckyshook3526]

Lovely thanks for the ideas

[@StitchingNana]

Thank you for another great video, the yarn is so pretty. I'll have to give this method a try one of these days.

[@kimbryan2014]

I do not have a carder and love the demo on the difference between the two types and if I can ever get one the Straus one would be type I would buy...do love the carded color

[@CrazyMountain_Fiberworks]

Nice 😊

[@spincrochetrepeatrcc8961]

Pretty! Haven't started with mine yet. I think I'm going to try spinning from the fold

[@jdieselette]

Looks great

[@melaniereising5661]

I learn so much from you. I even priced drum carders. I think I’m going to have to stick with my blending board, though.

[@taniamitchell604]

Love it

[@robinboston5948]

Beautiful blending. I am going to try to make a carder only with a hand crank.

[@kristalburns3490]

Its so pretty

[@debrajohnson6774]

I think your yarn turned out beautiful color wise. I’ve never made an art yarn simply because I dont see how I could use it- I don’t know what I’d do with the finished product

[@AmyAmandas]

I love that sunset one too!!! what are you going to make with it? can't wait to see

[@scummins4233]

Arrghh all the fluff on the licker would drive me insane 🤣 Bet it would make a pretty mini batt though. Wow, the colours in the braid were a bit much for me to begin with, but blending them worked so well, they look fab...especially being able to create so many different looks 😍 Love the finished yarn, but I'm slightly biased as it's one of my fav yarns to spin 😁 Have you decided what you're going to do with the yarn?

[@vcuchica]

Ok, first off! Love the your hair in the first clip! Like Farrah Faucet! The batts came out beautifully as well as the yarn!! Why did you decide to add the tinsel while spinning instead of while carding? Just curious! Great video!

[@cynthiad9445]

I just tried my hand at core spinning! However the issue I had was that my core had too much twist in it. After seeing yours, I will definitely try this! Your hair and your spinning look great!

[@gerryivkovich1857]

I have been spinning for 15 years and I don't know much about core spinning. Perhaps a basic video or questions answered when you do an "answer" video. Do you treadle slower? What makes a good core? Thanks for the consideration. Blessings.

[@Which-Craft]

good call, Gerry! all the core spinning I've done was practice on that bobbin led wheel of mine - would love to have more insight into producing a real yarn out of it.

[@irinialexandridi3522]

I love your haircut, I think it suits you. do you need to drum the fiber before you spin it or could you spin it as it was?

[@Which-Craft]

omigosh I think you just answered my question about whether to weave from the single. Dunno if you've seen my spin of the same on the group (WIP), but it's definitely not suitable for a ply. I wonder if core spun is my answer (because really hesitant to weave from singles). How on earth did you do the icy blue blend? They're all gorgeous, but that one - WOW how?

[@gerryivkovich1857]

Sorry, one more question. Where did you find a cone of such thin silvery goodness? I love sparkle.

[@candyquilt]

Love the way you got so many different blends out of one top. Just starting to learn how to spin so to will be quite some time before I try a wrapped core but what you got was so pretty. What will you do with it?

[@danielleh5911]

I LOVE the way the top turned out after you carded it! But know I have questions. How do you decide on what to use for the core? Would crochet thread work or is that too thin? And other than weaving what kind of project would you use core-spun (and other art yarns) in?

[@PeaceLoveAndRico]

this fiber is beautiful, just not for my wardrobe. can i use black dye to add a little attitude? though, that roving looks purdy neat, i'm seeing a princess rug for my niece, thanks!

[@sophiezie-carreras9423]

Hello and thank you for the video. May I ask what thread you used for the auto wrap? Many thanks

[@dawanariley4183]

I think it turned out amazing 🤩 please explain want you wanted? Lol I’ve been setting on the fiber because I have no idea how to spin it I was thinking about spinning with a solid color. I so excited I finally getting chain plying down Still have loose spots

[@rachelkeller6378]

I have done several core sounds and I still get the core over spun. How do you control it to not get out of hand?

[@teresac.m.355]

What will you use it for?

[@carrietreder8474]

Your hair does look cute and retro! I get it though. I tried a center part for a couple of days because it was “the style” and hated it on me. Polwarth and silk?!?! 😍♥️ I called Paradise and got a second box in March because I love the fiber so much. Now I think I’m going to blend them in a similar way, but a little less blended. One, maaaaybe two passes on the carder. And probably add sparkle. Because sparkle. A question: is there any benefit to a corespun yarn vs a chunky single? Is the difference very visible? Either way, your yarn turned out so pretty! Do *you* like it though?
