These are my most recent spinning efforts- some corespun (purple and turquoise) babydoll and some Navajo-plied tussah silk.
A place for online sellers to advertise fibers and related goods available for sale or for trade on their websites.
For spinners who explore handspun yarn as an artistic medium, where yarn plays a role in the spheres of form & function. Please share pix of your art yarn creations, communicate the concept / ideas behind the yarn, & your creative process.
Never from the fleece. I've only spun Wensleydale from commercial top. But I loved it!
How about tussah silk top?

- About Me:
- I started knitting a few years ago in order to have one thing in my life that would stay at the same stage of completion until I came back to work on it again (I'm a SAHM, so my days seem to revolve mostly around food prep, laundry, cleaning, childcare- things that start over several times a day). Then I began to spin my own yarn (apparently I'm fascinated by spinning wheels, because I also cycle for transportation), and finally dye my own fiber. On the Ravelry I'm threeonabike, and on ArtFire and Twitter it's FiberCycle
