Turning an Space Dyed Braid into a Gradient Batt or Self-Striping Yarn-Acid dyed wool to gradient

[@irinialexandridi3522]

Hi Trish. Everytime I watch you I want to start coloring, druming and spining. One of these days, I will get off my chair and just do it...

[@danielleh5911]

2 things 1: the colours are SO dreamy in the way they blended in that batt. Loved it so much! 2: the ASMR of the carder picking up the wool is not to be joked about. You could literally do a real time batt video with that drum carder and I would watch the whole thing.

It IS a lot for the “members” and it’s wonderful to support a channel that offers so much information.

[@sanflo2810]

This is interesting. Now I understand what a roving and rolag is.

[@jackiebrown7859]

That is one of the prettiest color schemes I think I've seen🥰

[@dexterlovesannie]

That is so beautiful! Loved the braid too, I've seen this done before and never really understood the point of putting in all that extra work - but now I seeeeee! Lol.

[@irinialexandridi3522]

Love watching you blend fibers 😊

[@taniamitchell604]

So gonna do this

[@crazybird6821]

Thank you so much for the roving tip. I have split batts like that before HOWEVER struggled with the turning of the join section. Thank you and the farm truck is the bomb.

[@rockinrobin1975]

I don't know why I have never done a gradient yarn! Love it!

[@LisaMyEclecticLife]

That pretty braid is even more lovely now, blessings.

[@sdances124]

Awesome

[@jacquelinesalem2776]

A gradient bat demo. Great idea! Thank you for showing this process.

[@jujuridl]

Good lord that batt is scrumptious!!!!

[@ritaorr766]

It was fascinating watching this again. It helps me remember stuff I want to try.

[@PandTRanch]

Oooo, the possibilities!! I joined a fibre of the month club here in Canada and I was thinking of putting some braids through my drum carder and then spinning them long draw.... so I think I’m going to do THIS! Thanks Trish! 😀

[@ingridspinknitlove1192]

I have no idea why I’ve never thought of this before! Genius.

[@wendysalgado2054]

I love learning about new ways to blend! I can't wait to see how you spin it into yarn. So may possibilities🤩

[@sanflo2810]

Could you demonstrate how to do gradient using hand carders.

[@SweetpeaCydsInspirations]

Thank you for sharing. The drum carders are awesome! Love watching others use them.

[@katherinesmith6820]

The gradient turned out gorgeous!

[@janetpinkelman2324]

Hey Trish, how about doing a video showing all the socks you knitted and maybe any other things you made? l would love to see the socks you have knitted with your variegated yarns to get an idea of what the finished products can look like.

[@tracybarger7822]

That was so cool. I am happy to see how much you like that drum carder. I think the vendor is going to be very busy

[@katlynkoester]

I like variegated batts and yarns, I would do the repeating color pattern/self striping because I usually work on small projects and would want to get all the colors in each item.

[@ChanelBlanc15]

I really just *love* those colors together. SO pretty!

[@Whatdottiemakes]

That would make an AMAZING warp!

[@rowenabooth14]

Thanks Trish for another great podcast. Always very informative and motivational. Looks easy with a drum carder.

[@LittleWendysDaydreaming]

Hi Trish, the braid is gorgeous and I love how the batt came out

[@teresayoung4145]

Thanks so much for showing this!! Always love your tutorials. Thanks so much for the beautiful batt for Tour de fleece!! It turned out as a gorgeous yarn.

[@CrazyMountain_Fiberworks]

Thank you for this video 😊

[@carrietreder8474]

That gradient turned out beautifully, I keep thinking of a crescent-shaped lace shawl with it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I love drum carders so much! Rose gold……I wonder, would it require sparkle to work?

[@SixAcresFarm]

Love how this roving turned out. Very pretty

[@marinamartinez6886]

Thanks for demonstrating the process, I'm still a Newby and didn't know how they were used. 👍👍👍

[@dominiquemichaud7945]

I LOVE drum carding videos! Thank you!

[@holly3442]

I love this one. I am not usually a fan of this colour way but man, this is gorgeous!

[@elizabethernest]

WOW!!!!!! You are just convincing me more and more that I need to save money faster so I can get a drum carder! I want to do this sooooooooo much!!!!!!!

[@catherinec7509]

This is so awesome. I would never have thought about doing it this way. I am going to have to dye up a bat now to try this. Thank you for sharing.

[@sylvanwoods5271]

That is so gorgeous! I love the idea of using it for a warp. I can't wait to try it!

[@SmallFossy]

Ooo love the colours in the braids behind you!

[@michelezunker5029]

Really pretty gradient. Can't wait to see you spin it!

[@runtsgal]

The batt came out just gorgeous. I have some Polwarth just begging for this technique.

[@seekingtoremain]

Love love love! What a cool option, especially if you love the colors of a braid but want them in a different order. I haven’t been brave enough to reorder a braid, but I might be now!

[@amymiller9189]

Holy SnackBuckets!!! Love your videos and the ideas you share❣️❣️❣️ I don’t have a drum carder … yet… but I do have a blending board. I’m putting this on my Must do list 😁

[@melaniereising5661]

Beautiful! Can’t wait to see you spin it.

[@hens-n-chicksfiberarts]

Love this!!! I have a braid and a drum carder and now, a mission!!!

[@MOLLIMEDIA]

I love this! Thanks for carding a gradient batt. You have a unique talent for selecting colors that work so well together. Fun video…Thanks so much.

[@raysunshine830]

I’m excited to see this spun!

Gorgeous!!! Started spinning the Jacob braid …. Wish I could have bought 3 more - it is spinning up great and exactly what I was hoping for!!

[@kitchencountercrafter]

Trish, this is amazing! I have a blending board and need to try this with a multicolor braid of fiber.

[@LDSVenus]

Oh wow, that turned out so beautiful, something else now I’m going to have to try, if I get to try all these techniques I’ll have to live to be 100, 😂

Amazing! Loved watching this today - you Rock! Joining your Community this weekend!

Beautiful gradient I've done a couple on my classic but mine isn't as big as yours so can only do 3 to 4 colours at a time. But I'm thinking of investing in the larger one like yours I think, thank you so much for sharing this with us all much love and light and big virtual hugs x

[@yarnandtealover6401]

How wide is your carder now? I’m looking for a new Ashford drumcarder at the moment and I don’t want to buy one that’s too small. 🤔

[@QueenAnneKnitsandSews]

THAT IS SO COOL!!! Thank you for the example of how to do this! Can you give a little more info on your Classic Carder? Is yours high sided or standard? Is it the jumbo size or standard size? Long pins or standard? I'm not sure if the long pins are important. TIA for the info!

[@emmasmom60]

Very pretty batt. I'm going to have to try this and use it for a weaving project. I'm such a copy cat!

Awesome how to! I've always wondered if this could be done. TY as always!

[@kimlyne9700]

I want to rip apart a braid and try this. Too many projects in my head! 🤣

I was looking for a video on how to do this. It turned out so nicely. Thank you.

[@sharonweitendorf1712]

Very pretty gradient

[@gerryivkovich1857]

What great info! Since my carder is smaller in width, I guess I could split the colors into 2 batts using 3 colors each time. I'll give this a try. Thanks so much and God bless.

[@sewmom17]

One day I hope to be able to do that!

[@leonbyrne4339]

Supercool to see how you can transform a braid into your own batt! Right now I'm thinking of making my own batt, however I'm considering not going from a braid. What sort of keywords/terms should I look for if I want to get a handful of individual colors that I can then blend myself on a drum carder? I'm a weaver by trade so I'm still learning all of the fiber and spinning terminology! Shop recommendations are also appreciated

[@robinboston5948]

Thank you, that was great!

[@donnalougher9059]

Fantastic!

[@WellWoopdidoo]

The batt looks great, love the soft dusty pink even if it it’s quite what you were aiming for. Wonder if this technique will work with a blending board? One way to find out.

[@sarahfaylucy6492]

I really like that almost perfect braid 😍 I hope you make more.

[@lorihobson6528]

Hi

[@Laughing.Lioness]

Loving this idea! I have a beautiful “almost” rainbow braid that I was trying to decide how to prep and spin. I’ve also been eyeing Stephen West;s Pagona shawl pattern. How awesome the rainbow braid spun as a gradient would look in that shawl. Thanks Trish!
