Combed Tops and Carded Batts
My New Year's Resolution is to finish what I start. No more scraps of wool in bags and boxes and so this is the start.
I also am processing my fibers a little differently. I was so inspired by a You Tube of Russian wool paddles that I decided to get most of wool ready to spin using my hackle and comb. Not exactly the same but the nearest I can get with my equipment. This is the latest project. The top photo is a carded batt made using the wool that is left on the hackle after pulling off through the dis and I then carded it with a little addition of white and angelina sparkle. The bottom is the combed top which I pulled through the dis off the hackle. This leaves all the short wool behind and gives a smooth top to spin.
I have listed the carded batt on Etsy and called it Lillie the Pink. The top I think I will spin myself .
So I have NO pieces of pink wool in a bag or box that is not ready to spin
