Spinning from the Fold

 

So many folks want to know what spinning from the fold is, and I was outside this afternoon spinning away, so I handed the camera to our oldest boy, Christopher (6), and he snapped these for you!

 

 

 

Take a length of roving or top in your hands:

 

 

Break off a length a bit longer than the fibers themselves:

 

 

Fan that piece out a bit:

 

 

Fold it over your index finger:

 

 

And then pull some of the fibers from the fold near the tip of your finger and begin drafting:

 

 

 

Ta da!
