I wish I could have attended! I am teaching myself to spin cotton (via youtube) and could use some help!😉❤️

Aw, thanks! Fortunately I like “chunky” knits!❤️

My first spinning attempt produced seriously chunky and wonky results, but it was lots of fun. This is a mix of llama, sheep, and bamboo, with a dried leaf for reasons unknown.

And I like chunky knits, too. Especially for hats.

Oh, I love every bit of that, what a great combination, and the leaf enhances the palette ❤️!

Thank you! It seemed at home there, and now I know why ☺️

Spinning cotton is even harder than spinning wool because the fibers are usually a lot shorter. I tried once…

I've heard plant fibers in general are harder (I still want to try eventually though lol 🤣)

Do it! I just watched a movie called Nettle Dress. Very inspiring for plant fiber spinning/weaving.

Yes, a short staple makes it harder but I adore cotton.
