Spinning ONE Glorious YARN with 383 Fibers 🧶 This is Floof Mountain!

It's lovely! Looks like the beater bar of my vacuum after doing the sewing studio and loom rooms. LOL

[@JillianEve]

The vacuum beater bar is definitely a close relative! A 1st cousin maybe? 🤣

[@WthrLdy]

@JillianEve maybe 1st cousin, once removed...get it? Get it? It's a vacuum...removed, ha!

[@kaytiej8311]

Snap.

[@WthrLdy]

@@kaytiej8311 I wasn't being mean. It's lovely, and so is my vacuum bar after it's been through all my fiber scraps.

[@kaytiej8311]

@@WthrLdy it was a recognition of common experience. Nothing more.

[@CobraCreates]

When I heard Hall of the Mountain King come on I went "ohhhh no" out loud. Then when you were making the giant pile of pinches I kept picturing that Star Wars scene of Kylo Ren going "More! MORE!!" 😂

[@kitterzy]

Ngl, I screamed when you pulled out the Vicuña! Blasphemy! 😂. I guess if you don’t sacrifice a bit you won’t create something magical.

[@marsfilipek7478]

I'd watch a whole series of you grabbing 2-3 things from your bits and bobbles bins and spinning them, no matter which ones you pull.

[@resourcedragon]

Yes! I love watching Evie spin.

[@therealhellkitty5388]

I’m sure Edvard Greig is laughing his spectral bits off at this moment. What a great project!

[@youcancreatetoo6058]

Evie, I stumbled upon your channel about 2 weeks ago. Since then, I've been devouring fiber spinning content! And yes, I now own a carding board, 2 hand carders, commercially prepared floof, and an unskirted/unscoured fleece! I've made 2 drop spindles and a supported spindle from watching your video on how to create your own. And, I just made a Turkish spindle 2 days ago! I'm mid spin on my first roulag and loving it!!! I could go on and on, all to say THANK YOU for igniting in me something that is making my ADHD brain buzz in a productive way. ❤

[@powerpuff4ever]

Gosh I just love your bangs so much. They make you look so youthful and kind of edgy? You’re just one of those people that looks really great with this style of bangs

[@Yarnchurch]

OMG I was JUST thinking about this trend. Before I got into spinning and knitting, nail polish was my prior obsession, and I just REALLY appreciate this cross-over. Ok now I’ll actually watch the video lol

[@kellywilkinson292]

I’m two minutes into the video and my jaw is on the floor. 100 layers of fiber carded??? Holy cow this is going to be crazy. I can’t wait, I am strapped in.

[@forestm936]

I could just FEEL your tiredness by the end, or actually already after dinner. The way that words just stop working in your head is very relatable. Also stop worrying about the bin/tub/tote/box thing. Call them what you call them 😊

[@kaytiej8311]

It's been a hard week or so. This morning I just needed a friendly, sweet face and there you were. Thank you for sharing the 'lovelies' and the fun. A bright spot in my day to just rest.

[@resourcedragon]

Yes! We’ve been having “once in 2,000 years” floods AGAIN (I think they need to recalibrate how often they happen), and so Evie releasing her inner chaos goblin was the perfect distraction. And I love the final skein.

[@tanjabrauer6391]

That was AMAZING! At first I thought, “How is she going to fit 100 fibers on there? Does she even have that many?” And then … “How many will there be?” It came out so gorgeous - can’t wait to see what you do with it! Thank you for the inspiration. 🥰

[@misscranky]

Halfway through the batt was looking like the surface of Jupiter

[@dominiquenotyourbusiness5836]

okay that bag of silk moth cocoons took me by total surprise lol

[@catopig7611]

Feels like the start of a yearly tradition to reintroduce yourself tactilely to the joy of the stash and record how it evolves over time. Plus it might take you that long to recover!

[@kellywilkinson292]

This was a roller coaster ride from beginning to end (I literally never say that about anything), and when you reached 250, I thought “can she get to 300???” Then you hit 300 AND KEPT GOING! I don’t think anyone will be able to do this challenge. My head is still spinning with all the fiber. I’m going to need time to process. Absolutely epic video.

[@CrownedLadybug]

You say the point of youtube challenges is to watch people suffer, but I'm just enjoying watching you rediscover all the cool things you've got in your stash! So much gorgeous fiber! (And of course that one odd one out that feels like Wet Socks and We Don't Like It)

[@lorainew4281]

That was so much fun! And wow! 383 different fibers, that has to be a first! The spun batt looked super pretty and it will be interesting to see what you do with the finished skein, can't wait!

[@MillsSkits]

What a neat yarn you made! I can't help but wonder how big a label this would need if it were a manufactured yarn, to show the fiber content breakdown! 😆

[@rosea570]

That floof stash could see you through another certificate of excellence!

[@atorres8760]

You almost made me cry. Not the vicunya! But I’m fascinated by the drum spinner and the utter chaos you created.

[@eddavanleemputten9232]

This video was a delight to watch! I think the closest description of what you did is what Jente from the Mijn Wolden channel would call “Chaos Goblin Yarn Shenanigans”. And I’m completely here for it. 🤩 As much as I’m a passionate knitter, this yarn will probably shine more if it’s woven instead of knitted. Although perhaps with your experience and knowledge you might know better. Whatever you come up with, I can’t wait to find out!

[@radishfest]

Yesss, I thought of her chaos goblin carder videos too! I've picked up a drop spindle and a tahkli between watching those videos and this one, it's neat noticing how (minimal, lol) spinning experience has shifted my perspective. Paid a lot more attention to the drum carder itself this time, looked up from my work every time fiber length was mentioned. Remembered that I want to learn more about nettle! So happy to have found this channel. 😌

[@auntietara]

That was fun! 🥰

[@CazzyWills]

Jillian, I am new to spinning and love it. You are an exceptional and beautiful person, your videos bring me so much joy. Thank you xx

[@AndreaAlexander]

Oh my gosh this was SUCH a joy! Learning more about your stash and watching all the colors blend together was just so satisfying. And that finished yarn! 🤤 I can't wait to see what you make with it!!

[@leciashronce6483]

Watching this technique of adding “floof” changed my results in drum carding dramatically. I now have the most wonderful evenly colors batts ever!🎉

[@SS_S.]

I loved this video. Not for the subject specifically (though it was fun!), but because it made me happy to see your energy and your enthusiasm for this. You looked like you were having fun, which is great

[@michelenorine3621]

OMG!! This has to have been one of my top favorites of your videos Jillian. So much fun, so many little nuggets of tricks and tips and ALL the fiber-WOW!! I do wish we could have seen a little more of the spinning, but this was AWESOME!!

[@MijnWolden]

(insert Elmo fire .gif): CHAOS! I'm here for it!

[@Caguilar1988]

35:02 it looks like a nebula!!

[@brunaogusku6294]

I'm so here for it! I'm watching this vid while weaving in the ends of like 20+ small pieces, thanks for keeping me company

[@115tea]

I am a HUGE Cristine fan and also a huge fan of you so this was like... the crossover of my dreams

[@aileenxtl]

What a fun challenge! I did die a little inside though when you took a whole pinch of the vicuna.

[@Nanzilla]

I am excited to see what you make with this. It's spectacular.

[@sonjanordahl3158]

I think if it were me, I'd weave up a weft faced scarf. Looking forward to seeing what you do.

[@kimj3981]

This was such a joy to watch and the yarn you made with Floof Mountain looks gorgeous and definitely one of a kind. I hope you enjoyed making this as much as we all enjoyed watching. I’m so Excited to see what you decide to make with it.

[@knitspingirlcreations]

What a fun project! I can't believe you managed to stuff that many different floofs onto your drum carder. 383? Madness! But your finished yarn is so pretty. Can't wait to see what you do with it. ❤ Tamantha PS - Seeing people being happy and excited brings me joy. Not suffering. Please don't torture yourself for the views.*hugs*

[@13MoonsOverMayhem]

Ohhh, that silk lap is drool worthy. ❤

[@feltlikeitbydebs]

Now to get the drum carder cranking. Thanks for the inspiration. ❤

[@silverwitch6863]

Stash mountain… I loved the whole experience! The yarn turned out pretty, and I totally agree with you that we need JOY! Will go through my stash and think about a nice February project that brings me joy. 😊

[@drewadrawing]

I remember watching Cristine's original video all those years ago, and I never even thought how someone might apply this challenge to the fiber world!! This was an incredibly fun video to watch and I am so excited to see what you do with the yarn!

[@teacat55]

Yer getting dangerously close to 75k….. good video! That was such a satisfyingly gorgeous pull off the carder…. Can’t wait to see where it leads you.

[@robinmitchell4721]

I'm so glad you did this! I just spent Saturday stash busting, giving samples from my rare sheep wools so he could make an exhibit to carry around to show people that there's more to fiber than just Merino. Included naturally colored cottons, too.

[@adelaideknits]

This yarn turned out lovely. So tactile

[@NikMcPherson]

I'd love to see that kettle dyed floof chain plied. A newer video where you chain ply, plus a wild dye job, could be fun!

[@theedwardianwriter]

FLOOF MOUNTAIN! This felt like such a true replication of the original-oh I so happen to have hundreds of (thing) what if we put them all together? So enjoyable despite the suffering you had to go through. I can’t wait to see what project this becomes!

[@jackiebruce9146]

The ultimate stash tour! I can't wait to see what you do with it ^_^

[@yarnjune]

This is really giving smth like Safiya Nygaard’s frankenstein creations! Love the end result

[@JM-jv6gk]

I love it! I'd call it the "happy yarn"🥰

[@Zeldur]

“I have so many projects.” Me too mate. Me too. My list is about… 70-80 long? I sometimes go back through it, add the new impulse projects, retire the ones I no longer have interest in or did a different thing for it (usually just buy it). Lately my project has been reorganizing my room, what I want displayed, removing what I no longer want to display, etc. Also taking note of my project supply stashes and tackling those. Been doing this since December 😂

[@NicholasproclaimerofMessiah]

Gold from the diet of the moths? That's amazing!

[@goddesofwolves]

This was the perfect video to wake up too and sip on a cuppa. I too have those fibers that I just can’t. Even just thinking about it 😅. Your project turned out so good and I thing it was right on time.

[@angelacepeda5981]

Wow! I cannot wait to see what you make with your beauitful frankin' yarn. ♥️

[@jeanneb6320]

Evie you're a delight like always! What a stunning skein you ended up with, can't wait to see what becomes of it

[@tracybird4547]

I gasped in delight with some of those braids! And not that you asked…lol…but I think you oughta get rid of that squeaky ingeo corn that makes yer elbows itchy!! 😂❤

[@pattern-shift]

This needs to become a wall hanging something for your studio. ❤

[@elineeugenie5224]

I respect your dedication 😮❤! And that end result looks gorgeous!!

[@ambermcallister5980]

I cannot wait to see what you do with it!

[@louisalowry6229]

What a glorious yarn!!

[@hiloew]

Hi Evie, I so enjoyed seeing you go through all your fiber to make that amazing batt! I love watching whatever you do. Thank you!

[@fyrecraftedgaming]

Omg I just happened to refresh yt! Freeeesh vid. Yaaaaas Oooo 100 layers

[@deniseengel1451]

This was fun watching you create the batt. What a lot it work to do it but the yarn is so interesting.

[@lizbongrav2108]

This was SO. MUCH. FUN!!!!!

[@nz-nz]

Wow 😳 Didn’t think it was possible!!!

[@christinasauser9085]

Can't wait to see the final project! It's beautiful!

[@Amanda-yf7vj]

Hahaha i dont feel so bad now!!! You have waaay more in your stash than i have!!! And that makes me feel waaay better about my stash! 😂

[@ClaireOttman]

Evie, you are so animated, cute, aborable, and happy in this video. I just love it. It makes me want to do a batt with my much smaller stash. Alas, no drum carder. I do have a blending board. You have given me food for thought and a great distraction from the times we are in. Thank you.

[@MrFrancistheButler]

I stayed up late to finish watching this video, and got a little silly-tired myself. 🤪😅Eve, this yarn is absolutely beautiful, and I know we are all eagerly waiting and curious to see what project you have in mind for it!

[@Meredith36]

This was so much fun to watch! I can't wait to see what it becomes. Happy creating 💚🧶🩷

[@PliedTogetherPodcast]

Your suffering truly added to the experience. 🤣

[@stitchwithbritt5922]

Oohhh what a lovely floof mountain🥰 it made such beautiful yarn💕

[@rachelkatz3950]

Inspirational! I have tons of miscellaneous little bags like this.

[@mokepemberley4525]

😂😂😂 and 😮😮😮 - the video sparks joy 💖

[@beatrizlopez364]

It's so fun, cool batt. I think you should call it Circus.

[@melr.2329]

This is delightful, thank you!

[@nicolenewell4912]

I love your energy in this video, so playful and fun 😄 I laughed when you were listing off things that give you the ick, it's funny we all have those things, for my husband it's velvet which is a shame because I love it 😅

[@feelfreetobeyou4945]

This was a lot of fun to watch. Thank you.

[@knittingblackbelt40]

You and your yarn are adorable.

[@deejcarter2003]

This was such a blast to watch.🥰

[@runtsgal]

Wow! What a project that was. It looks so beautiful and special.

[@Bobbin_Hoode]

FRANKENYARN! I loved this video. It's the kind of thing I love to do just because of that silly grin it makes you do!

[@mmabe4000]

16:54 Yes!! I would absolutely watch a video of you ranting about recycled plastic textiles and sustainability.

[@debiritt4471]

I love it! So much fun. I also have purple bias, it’s fine!

[@cathrynwood6072]

Beautiful!

[@sandraanderson217]

Oh! That’s so cool!! ❤

[@BethanValerious]

This video scratched an itch in my brain and I can't wait to see the project you have in mind! Also you look super cute and pretty!!!

[@Hooksmeade]

So, so, so pretty!!! 😍😍😍

[@kindalegendary-mh4wk]

can't wait to see what you make with this!

[@alicepractice354]

So satisfying

[@belindalepley2752]

Beautiful . Thank you

[@slhughes1267]

Makes me feel better about my stash. I thought I had a ton of stuff. Her's makes mine look sparse.

[@mirandahinton3250]

Simply amazeing!

[@irisdude]

I'd love to see you blind folded and have mark randomly pick floofs out of your bins to hand you and see if you could identify them by touch only and see how many you get right.

[@JillianEve]

We do that already in the yarn isles of craft, thrift, and LYS. I get a few right. 😂

[@woollenmaplesgarden]

I was not expecting a SimplyNailogical in a yarn video lol. Not complaining 😅

[@syddlinden8966]

The spun yarn looks like royalty.

[@sablemoreno5095]

I was just going to do some crafting with mulberry silk threads to make silk flowers so i did a double take when you started pulling out the silk. I may have missed it, but id love to see a video on where you talk about where you source your fibers (for what you buy) and what to look out for when buying for those new to the carding & spinning craft

[@Nynaeve-TugsHerBraid]

“Joy is rebellion.” 💓

[@Melissah9812]

Great idea! Beautiful yarn!!!

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

This was so very fun, thanks !

[@teresaharp]

That's just awesome!😊
