It was, apparently easier to send yarn than blankets to sons, brothers and father's than to ship whole blankets. And in Britain before WWII, all children, not just girls, were taught to knit at school. The goal was to start them young and have them sufficiently proficient to make socks and gloves for soldiers. Or so my Dad told me, having been one of those children himself.

      Haha! I have thought the same thing about having lots of land one day and getting alpacas to make my own yarn with.
      After watching this video I get a real grasp of just how tedious and much work goes into it.
      Now I wonder where would I even get the time to crochet if taking on this task as well?? I mean I can literally spend all day crocheting and working on projects.
      For sure have a real appreciation for handspun yarn. And I can now see why it is so costly. (I mean I knew it would probably be somewhat of a process, but seeing all this makes it even more obvious of why handspun yarn cost so much).

    That is such a lovely fleece! I’m sitting here watching this after having spent an hour carefully aligning locks in 2 mesh bags and it is currently in the washing machine soaking . I am spinning up some pre-prepared Jacob top while watching this. I also just realized I’d forgotten how to comb wool properly when I watched you doing it properly. I ended up taking a hiatus from wool prep and spinning after having the triplets and am just now getting back to it now that they’re 7. On the plus side, I’m enjoying showing them how to prep and spin the wool now, and they got little looms for Christmas, so I’m excited to show them some basic weaving as well with they’re new yarn. I like that you showed multiple different prep methods.

I'm writing a private little story and in it, my main character buys a sheepskin and will shear it down herself (the wool won't be very useful as yarn as the fibers will be very short, but she can stuff a pillow with it! and have a beautiful sheepskin to make mittens and boot liners with) and I cannot stand the thought of inaccuracy, so I'm glad I found this great video.

      A great way of starting out is to buy tops (already washed and combed fleece) and get a drop spindle. This is the cheapest and best way of starting out and how I started, it gets you used to spinning and working with the fleece without having to buy all the materials to process the fleece yourself 😊

      Average weight off a sheep freshly shorn is between 4-9 lbs. After sorting, washing and carding it will yield about 2-4 lbs of yarn. I am knitting a jumper for my husband (he is 6'7") and I reckon it's probably taken 1/2 of the fleece from 1 sheep (tho I was picky about the fibres I selected). It's the time required that is a bit overwhelming for some. Life gets in the way, wrists get sore and time is needed in other areas so to give a realistic time it's about 3-6 months (for me) from shearing through to a wearable garment. We also raise our sheep so we have exactly the fibres we want and we know they are well cared for 🙂

    Reminiscent of the good old days when I knew a lot of farmers and could pick out the sheep I wanted sheared. Those net bags look like a good way to keep the wool from gluing itself together while washing. Always dry by laying out the wool on something like a picnic table. Preparing the wool for carding can take a lot of time and effort.

      I spin dog hair almost exclusively these days. It makes fabulous yarn. No one can tell it is dog. The best fur is from a dog the looses it undercoat every year….Samoyed,Husky, Pyrenees, Shepherds, Goldens , malamute.

      The yarn will be less soft but very strong and durable if you spin the layers together.
