This is how my hand spun yarn is carded (combed) into smooth batts ready for spinning. 3 or more times through the hand changed drum carder... it is a labour of love #handspunyarn #carding #welshwool #woolfromwales #makingbyhand #byhand #maker #jwrnal #orieldaviesgallery #creu

Teaching and encouraging others to 'have a go' at making is the reason I love running workshops...it fills me with joy. This lovely lady had never picked up a pair of knitting needles before last weekend @goodlifeexperience With the aid of super chunky yarn and huge needles she made herself a fabulous chunky cushion cover...happy 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #goodlifefestival #superchunkyyarn #handspunyarn #handknitted #chunkyknits #workshops #learnanewskill #makersrow
