The things we learn...

A hardcore longdraw spinner, I've learned to comb top and spin worsted.  I learned that I can draft quickly enough to do this on the Canadian wheel, so long as I am using a long-staple fiber.  I learned that Clemence's drive band troubles are deeper than I suspected- she needs one double band around the pulley with a strand in each groove, and a separate, tighter band around the bobbin.  NOW we can fly!


Dyed Tunis top and locks, fine Jacob fleece drying, and yarn!
3-ply!  Merino and Mo
