Where do you get your large carders from?

Thanks😊

Those rolags and yarn from the scrap yarn turned out so pretty!

Its amazing craft. And work im Weaver man

So about seeing the imperfections in your own stuff, there's this quote I read in a similar place, about how people get into making things because they have good taste, but when they start out their ability to make good things lags behind their ability to tell if the things they made are good, and it's discouraging, a lot of people quit without closing that gap. I'm still super-critical of most things I make, but I just try and roll with it

good

I went back to uni at 26 too. It was the best decision I ever made. My BA was pretty rough (hello depression) but going back felt so much better! I had an actual goal beyond Bs and Cs get degrees

i found this video while on a MAD search to find advice on how to increase a honeycomb slip stitch bc im doing my first project back in knitting (vs crochet, my typical craft) - leg warmers that i desperately want to flare. your intro spoke to my heart and i love this !!!! and i love freehanding :) SUCH a good way to learn- and ur video helped me learn!! and i LOVED ur big sis advice . needed it today . :3

Very helpful video. Focusing on the bottom of the empty carder is something I've missed before! FYI you can say staple length is the average length of each fiber. It kinda sounded like you were saying the fibers break apart to form the staple length (which, yes, might happen when you pull like that)

I found a big bump of wool /mohair on fb marketplace for cheap that I've been learning on and it's perfect. I've heard corriedale too, and i started on it a few years ago but ended up abandoning the whole thing in a in huge cross country move. I find the wool/mohair blend so pleasant to draft and I like a really fine yarn, which I'm getting super easily even on my drop spindle. I really think it just depends on what you want. I saw Abby Franquemont give the advice of getting as many different types of fiber as you can or want to and to just not be afraid, because there are so many different cultures of spinning in the world and people have learned on all sorts of fiber in all sorts of ways. I found that super empowering. Also I LOVE your colors and your aesthetic so much 💜

Im new to crochet and I love the way you’ve described free handing. It definitely sounds like something I’d enjoy

I went back to school for fashion 5 years after getting my bachelor’s ❤ so glad I did

Anytime I freehand I just power through it, finish and immediately frog everything 😭

What size needles are those

Lovely video! Love the tips and your colour combo. You kept everything lovely and simple to understand ! I personally was taught to card and make rolags slightly differently to prevent the carders getting damaged and so that the rolags aren't too tight so you don't have to pull them apart so much. I need to use my drop spindle more !

Your color palette and aesthetic feels very Grand Budapest Hotel in the best way possible.

Not to take away all your hard work and artistry but I honestly couldn't tell you were on a phone til about 6 mins in and don't know if I would have even realized or thought too deeply about it if you hadn't pointed it out. IT APPLIES TO YOU TOOOOOO!!! 💚💖

I've watched like five of your videos in a row. I love your vibes and you have a nice sweet and calm voice. You talking about color and how it helps you feel better reminds me of this song: I used to live in the darkness Dress in black, act so heartless But now I see that colors are everything Got kaleidoscopes in my hairdo Got back the stars in my eyes, too Yeah, now I see the magic inside of me Yeah, maybe my head's fucked up But I'm falling right back in love with being alive Dreaming in light, light, lights This kitty cat lost her mind Been lookin' for a star-sent sign that I'll be alright Look to the skies I found a rainbow, rainbow, baby Trust me, I know life is scary But just put those colors on, girl Come and play along with me tonight It's called Rainbow by Kesha. Thank you for all of your videos. You have inspired me to start spinning! 💚💖

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. WOW

I'm just starting my spinning journey and this video frickin hits all the newbie spinner feels!! Loved this video, thx for sharing Dordy!

I'm 58 this year. I've gone through endless phases of creative highs and lows. So, i can relate. One thing I know is, I'm NEVER grieving the creative part in me because it'll turn up when i least expect it. Grateful. Okay back to the video

Yarn looks gorgeous! Subbing

Do you offer any patterns for your sweaters,esp the fairy sweater.

My first time watching your video. In this one did you card store bought yarn and hand spun yarn?

wow! beautiful

That turned out cute! nicely done : )

Dog brushes are used by many too

So nice.

❤ love your unorganized spinning!! It is so creative and enjoyable 😊 Congratulations on making desicion of going to fashion school to really learn professional sewing ! I just started to learn to sew on my lste 50's and it is important to get good tecniques for sewing .. Do not create any stigmas about age when it comes to learning ! I started college at 27 years old at usa . That was my second career . The economy at that time was causing airlines companies to close down and traveling industry was on hold . My travel and tourism career was affected by the harsh economy. I had to go back to College. I studied really hard for sometime . I Graduated as a Cardio Pulmonary Therapist..and had a enjoyable career. English was a second languaje for me and I was in my 30's. I found a new group of friends that still have until now..All new doors open up ..Please, dream of the goals and all the beautiful things you will create Dream big ! Age is just a number . I met people in collegue in there 50's going to school just to fullfilled their dream of graduating ..Education has no age . Wish you all the best !! ❤ 😊

I love the end product! So pretty!!

Thank you for sharing

"I just want to spin all the time" so relatable!

Just found your channel and I'm so excited to watch more! Craft vlogs are my go to when crafting myself and I haven't done across any spinning vlogs until now so I'm so happy!

I recently discovered I could substitute easier stitches I know for ones I don’t, (like clusters, popcorn, quadruple double treble bubble stitches) and the project comes out ok. I am teaching myself Irish crochet, making small blankets and such. I will never make tops or sweaters. Too scary…

I'm glad spinning has helped you to find your knitting mojo again. The UA-camr CrowingHen has a video on those times when, as she puts it, "we go through periods of remission". It's called "Yarn is more forgiving than you think", ua-cam.com/users/shortsB3ZADWl5yek And if your knitting mojo takes another holiday at some time in the future, maybe that's a sign to start crocheting or weaving or felting or embroidering or dress making or lace making or ...

your creativity is so inspiring you lovely soul!!

omg I love the swirl on the swirl layer top! I should do more cutesy designs like that. so fun!

Scruff hat is actually giving me "chanel makes a bucket hat"

I absolutely LOVE the idea of adding charms to knitting! I think I just might do that myself... Thank you for the idea!

You made some beautiful yarn ❤

Your yarn is very nice. I am new at this and have uneven yarn with the roving.

Yeah. Needed your soothing voice while Im crocheting❤❤❤

1. I am 4 years older than the people my year in Uni. No one cares. Enjoy learning! 2. I feel you! Everything you described, I feel you. 3. I LOOOOOVE the yarn you made! I want to get carting brushes and a drop spindle and make scrap yarn now!

I could sit and listen to you speak all day. You have such a soothing tone and cadence and your joy and happiness are so palpable. Thanks for being so lovely, I’m glad I found your channel!

oh this is great, thanks a lot for sharing !

you should have more views!!

What a beautiful sock

loved this one dordy !

Hi Dordy, I hope you're OK xx ❣️❣️❣️ Thankyou so much for sharing this video podcast. When I knit socks, 🧦 I either knit 2 at time using magic loop, but the nethod I've used the most is by Knitting 2 at a time on 9 or 12 inch circular needles and start by doing the cuff on one and then the cuff in the 2nd one and then 10 rows on each till i get to the heels then I do one and then the other, then back to the 10 rows until the toes and then finish each of them. Especially for my son who has a size 12 uk foot. 🧦🥾 Hope this sort of helps. Happy Spinning and Knitting Fibre Friend 🎡🎉🐑🥰 Take care and stay safe Lots of love and Huge Hugs Jen xxxx ❤️❤️❤️❤️🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🌞

The cinematographic here is stunning! LOVE! I only do socks until now, could do socks all over and I need to force myself into anything else---as I do not need more socks and I prefer my own clothing than knitting for others all the time ;) You git this!// edit: I love the result! Sock is awesome <3 Greets from Berlin
