Hello lovely knitters, I hope this video gives you some inspiration and ideas on what to knit if you are looking for a new project to cast on! Even though I slowed down my knitting a bit last year, I still made many pieces I will cherish for years to come. Happy knitting!

This is so helpful! Thank you!
Nice job teaching .
So glad I found you/this. Your intro video is wonderful & the atmosphere you create is lovely. I begin my gentle mornings with a wonderful cup of pour over as well & wander to my Lendrum. A question...I can't locate my 'care' pamphlet that came with the wheel & I'd like to oil it & clean the wood. Can you tell us where to oil & best way to clean it? I care for things well & am lost trying to find that paper...recent remodeling made a mess of some things at home. Thank you so much. Barb
Best knitting podcast ever! Very well done. I hope you decide to add more content.. I’ve subscribed so I don’t miss it when you do. Love!
I''m very impressed with this video. About 30 years ago, we raised sheep for a few years, and I have a bag of carded roving that I've carted around with me ever since.I bought a Lendrum double treadle about 20 years ago....and then life got in the way! Am semi-retired now and have been trying to figure out what to do. This is the most helpful video I've found. I can be a bit impatient, want to master whatever I'm doing NOW, and appreciate her encouragement to scrap the urgency, practice good posture, practice treadling...
I am so glad you addressed posture and leg position. Thank you for the great tutorial.
And I like the process from the very beginning. From raw fleece to washing, drying in the sun, cleaning from VM, hand carding or combing, spinning, plying, making skein, washing skeins, fixing in steam, drying skeins, making the ball with nostepinne and then crocheting or knitting or weaving your own clothing :-) So satisfying :-))))) And when you add having sheep and shearing them with handblade, then it is really slow fashion.
For me, knitting and crocheting have always been very tactile. If I don’t like how a yarn feels between my fingers while I’m working with it, I don’t finish my project. If the yarn snags and it’s not knitting or crocheting smoothly, I get frustrated. Spinning my own yarn isn’t just cost effective. I have control of the kind of yarn I end up with. I also have less odds and ends of yarn left because I tend to spin for specific projects. When I have left over fibre it goes into a hew spin for a new project. 😊
Thank you for sharing, this is so true! Some projects can take so many hours that the tactile experience while making it is just as important as the finished garment ☺️
@@FibreFlowJo - I didn’t mention it in my initial comment, but I tend to spin fiercely fine because I mainly knit (and crochet) lace, with the odd sweater thrown in (lace, cablework or Japanese stitches from Hitomi Shida’s books). That prompts me to spin 30-40 wpi for a 2-ply on average, more for a sweater. Turns me into a bit of a picky person where it comes to fibre. The finer you go, the less you enjoy spinning or knitting if it doesn’t feel nice. Fortunately it also means I spend a lot of time on my projects, which means less shopping… which isn’t a bad thing for my wallet! 🤣 I recently heard a content creator use the word “scarfable” for soft fibre or yarn. Soft enough to wear against the sensitive skin of your throat. I instantly loved the term!
Very well done: demo was simple with great Camara angles, .no dog or cat distractions, good background scene & voice was calming. As a beginner my back always hurts when done after practicing spinning, thanks for posture lesson & drafting speeds to tension to consider .I over-twist a lot.. Now I know I'll get better at it. Thanks from Orlando, FL,
Thank you very much! I hope you have been gaining new insights with more practice and enjoying the process along the way! 💕 Please let me know if you have other questions on your mind that would be helpful and I can address it in a future video.
What a lovely, unassuming way you have about teaching the craft.....Thank you!
Thank you so much, this is such a lovely compliment 💕
Excellent video.
The best tutorial, please keep your videos coming.
Best tutorial for drafting that I have seen👍🏻
How did you learn to spin? I am struggling. I bought a beautiful older Louet S10, but cannot spin on her.
It was a bit of a learning curve. I made many mistakes along the way. Check out my beginner instructional video on my channel :) I also would recommend taking some classes in person if they are available in your area. Maybe someone could have a look at your wheel to make sure everything is set up optimally for a beginner.
Hello Joe, You are a wonderful teacher. I have watched so many videos and many are helpful but sort of only did a quick pass with regard to importance of treading. Thinking a lot about my accidents, tangles, bag full of mistakes, it came to me that I needed instruction and practice with treadling. Your explanation and demonstration are kind and clear. I am thankful and look forward to learning more from you. God bless the work of your hands
Thank you for such a kind comment! And you are not alone, we have all been there with a bag full of mistakes while we were learning 😊
We’ll done video! Thank you! I hope you continue to share your knitting and spinning talent and knowledge.
Very good tutorial!
I'm getting my own spinning wheel tomorrow yay... this video will sure come in handy
That is so exciting! Which spinning wheel did you end up choosing?
Very clear and understandable, thank you!
What a lovely video, calm and explained simply for us newbies 😊 thank you x
It’s extremely difficult to explain how to spin, but this is one of the best (if not the best) tutorials I have watched.
What a compliment! Thank you ❤
Hi I am a new spinner working on a borrowed ST Lendrum. I maybe looking. for a DT Lendrum in the near future. Just wondering where you purchased as I am in the Lower Mainland also. Thanks
That is great to hear! I hope you're enjoying the process. I purchased mine from The Fibre Garden in Ontario. I just spoke to someone at the shop yesterday coincidentally and they said the Lendrum DTs are waitlisted right now. They can be hard to come by but I'm so happy with mine. You can check out lendrum.ca to see where else Lendrums might be sold in Canada and the US. Best of luck and happy spinning!
@@FibreFlowJo Thank you
You’re so talented! Everything you made is so beautiful. Looking forward to more of your videos ❤
❤
Great video! Super informative. Happily subscribed :)
So helpful! Did the bobbin come with the wheel or do I have to buy it separately?
Hi! It usually comes with 3 bobbins if you buy it new 😊
This is the PERFECT video for me. I took the leap this week and my new Lendreum DT will be arriving next week. Thank you for making this
The Lendrum is a fantastic wheel. So excited for you!
Loveee 😊
So calming. Keep ‘em coming
Love the styling you did with all these pieces. Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to see all the pieces you’ll make in 2023
Another wonderful video. Love the process ❤
Thank you! 🥰
This is such a lovely video. In both production and content. Very aesthetic. Also the scenery reminds me of home (the Pacific Northwest).
Thank you! Although I can't take any credit for the filming/editing 😂 Can I just say....your channel name is EVERYTHING 😬🙌
@@FibreFlowJo thank you! I thought it was kinda funny 😄
What a lovely and relaxing video. Listening to you describe all your warm and cozy garments is like ASMR to me. I’d love to see some spinning content in the future!
I love this. Beautifully done video Jo and my gosh did you knit so many lovely things. I want them all lol. Keep it up friend, proud of you! ❤
