They do demonstrations from shearing the wool, combing it out, spinning the yarn and finally crocheting the yarn into beautiful hats, scarves, and sweaters. I was so amazed! I often thought this is truly becoming a lost art. Kudos to you for learning how to spin the wool!<br /><br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15121082353816114671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-64863367406807546892013-06-08T06:37:52.367-05:002013-06-08T06:37:52.367-05:00Yes, you can spin out of almost anything, even lon...Yes, you can spin out of almost anything, even long dog hair- which I have not since I can't figure this thing out yet! If the fiber is too fine you can mix it with other fibers such as wool. I probably need to just pay for lessons and load up the wheel. There is a good place up in north county, about an hour from me. I tried it in their store and could do it fine but you know how it is, you get home and then think, now what was I supposed to do???<br />Kathy Felsted Usherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10471923897561942341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-58777666504839158762013-06-08T06:04:43.508-05:002013-06-08T06:04:43.508-05:00I wondered if you could spin wool from llama's...I wondered if you could spin wool from llama's.
