Roving, Drop Spindle Kits, Used Equipment, Instruction


Roving 



I like to have almost everything processed into ready to spin roving soon after washing.  We try to keep several Jacob fleeces (medium wool, easy to spin, beautiful colors) in varying shades of white, gray and black, a few white Texel crosses (the longer end of medium, a nice crisp yarn, very easy to spin) and some Cotswold (nice luster and halo, easy to spin, dyes wonderfully) in stock.

These are all fleeces from our farm and each sheep's fleece is processed separately.  Unlike commercial roving, you will know exactly who you are spinning and you can go search the blog for pictures and stories about your sheep.  

I also occasionally offer limited amounts of other special sheep from my S.A.B.L.E. (stash accumulation beyond life expectancy ;-).  Please email for availability.  I really can't spin them all.  Really.

$4 per ounce (4 oz. minimum) or $56 per pound


Drop Spindle Kits - Learn To Spin





Each kit contains a hand crafted spindle, two balls (2 oz.) of easy to spin roving and instructions with pictures. I am happy to teach you to use it as well. I'm trying to get up my nerve to record a short instructional video, but until then, just email to set up a time to come out to the farm.

$18


Used Spinning and Weaving Equipment


I occasionally offer used equipment for sale.  I'll update as available



Spinning Instruction


I am happy to help you get started with either a drop spindle or spinning wheel!  There is no charge for your first lesson.  If you'd like further instruction, I just ask that you make a donation to the hay fund :-).  

Please email to set up a lesson.  If the weather is nice we'll work out on the Wool House porch.  If we need to move inside, please be willing to wear a mask when working close up.
