English Longdraw £12.00 (47 minutes duration)
At some point most spinners come across a reference to Longdraw spinning. It is one of those techniques that looks so easy when done well and then can be very frustrating for newcomers to master. This video goes into the process from what carders to use and what fibre is most suitable, to how to card really well. It then shows you how to draft for proper English Longdraw in order to produce light and airy lofty yarns which are the desired end result of this technique. I have taught this technique for over 30 years and was lucky enough to be invited to tutor it at Majacrafts summer camps in Australia and New Zealand in 2019.
Super Smooth Yarns with The Roll Back Technique. £15.00.
If you struggle to achieve consistency in your spun yarns and despair of ever producing a nice even yarn without lumps then this is the video for you. If you are new to spinning this will help you enormously to gain control over your wheel and be able to spin beautiful yarns like the ones in these photos. This video is one hour 20 minutes in length and goes into details my method for washing, combing and spinning using this technique which I have been teaching my students for 30 years. It also covers plying and how I sample my yarns for great results every time.
