@Sutton Felix thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I wouldn't want to buy all the stuff I need to make this but, like, if there was a convention and they had a yarn-making tutorial I would 10000000 percent go.
I did this whole process once. Up to, but not including, a knitted garment. Sent the wool to a relative. Not sure she truly comprehended how much time enough wool to make a knitted jumper actually took lol.
@@Kayenne54 oh my goodness wow! that is a labour of love right there! I'd love to learn to spin, but knitting is already becoming quite the investment haha.
So I thought to myself, "dude what if in the future I got alpacas and I use their wool to make my own yarn." And I saw this video. So, I have so many hobbies and interests that I'd never have time to do this, but now I have a whole new appreciation for the people who do.
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).
I used to be a farm hand on an alpaca/llama ranch! Even just the ranching part is really hard but super rewarding. The people I worked for send their fiber out to be turned into yarn by someone else (expensive af to do btw) and gave me a few recently as a goodbye present. SO SOFT
If you look at how much time we spend watching tv, that's time that can be spent spinning. I use a drop spindle; and it is just about the most relaxing thing ever. I can spin quite a decent sized cop of yarn whilst watching an hour of NCIS.
I have a great appreciation for how things used to be done by hand before we started using large scale commercial manufacturing. What you are able to do by hand is a beautiful work of art.
This is wonderful! You showed me many little tips that I hadn’t seen before like putting the wool in bags when washing, spinning with a salad spinner to get all the water out, making a perfect skein. Thank you so much. :-)
So cool! Thanks for making this and sharing the process. So many steps. This would definitely take patience, but then again, crochet and knitting certainly take patience. Would have loved to see how you dye the yarn.
So wonderful how you did it step by step...i have to say that i will always appreciate Yarn location in doha Qatar 🇶🇦 i would like one day to use your lovely yarns
If anyone ever tells me yarn is too expensive I'll show them this video. Don't overconsume! Knit your own clothes and use quality yarn like this one, they will last you for many many years! Thank you for this video, this is amazing. I have been given 3 sacks of raw wool and I think I will try this.
I'm really glad this video was in my recommendations, I just started knitting and had very little knowledge on how yarn was made! Amazing video, so relaxing and instructive. Thank you!
Some videos are perfect with talking, some are perfect without talking. This video was perfect. I felt like I was standing and watching, learning from the mistress of her craft waiting for my turn to have a go
One would nearly need be born into this or have the patience of Job. Same w flax. Much respect for those who figured this out eons ago, and those that still do it!
Amazing! And can not even imagine how much time from start to finish it would take for a sweater quantity, plus the dyeing . You are a patient woman. (Plus the tools you have) what a process, and yet it would be some yarn that I would definitely acquire for my personal use. Thank you from my heart❤️
First of all, beautiful work. Interesting to see how many steps it took, how much effort. Another thing I noticed, is that 9:31 onward that is a hungarian folk song called "Csillagok csillagok." It is one of our most beautiful folk songs, I was quite surprised to hear it in a norwegian (?) video about spinning yarn. Pleasantly surprised.
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 just think turning wool to yarn is absolutely amazing. It can be a very therapeutic or relaxing thing to do. It probably is nice to have fur bearers for yarn production-they feel like family I guess. Wonderful video.
I read a story somewhere that a lady left a corporate environment cause her hobby like this became so popular she started her own farm with much support from her family and many friends. Best wishes to you. I love handmade yarns from start to finish. Occasionally get my hands on some when I can.
oh, it is so, so beautiful. it is my intention to someday have my own fiber animals (rabbits, goats, alpacas, oh my! Chiengora is also high on my list of fibers to play with, and I cannot resist the thought of merino). thank you for a simple, beautiful showcase of fiber processing! 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.
I cannot express how beautiful this craft is and how much I respect the hands and minds that keep this knowledge. 8:42 specifically is a true masterpiece of motion and creation blended with aesthetic (and the videography is not lost on me either!), my oh my *what hands*! An amazing art, craft, science, whatever. Thanks for sharing, for knowing, and for keeping it alive. It's not often that we remember how to regeneratively make from nature, and not common that we value it as we should.
Its a crazy amount of work. I have just started the process of washing, carding and spinning my own fleece from pet sheep. Spinning i'm finding the hardest so far. Alot of skill and practice. Great video thank you.
Amazing. I taught manufacturing of different yarns in junior college. Had this vdo been available at that time it would have been great help for me. Any way yarn manufacturer of natural fibers is so elaborately done. Amazing vdo.👏
That was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this with us all. So much hard work and love and care went into making all of this and those wonderful skeins thank you!
The trick is to gently pull a small amount then let the twist in. This is what she is doing at 7:03. You’re right if you pull too far or too fast it will come apart.
@@Ella-iw4gk Mmm, I feel like that's something you have to get used to it. Like practice a lot or something. I feel like that balance is fragile. Thanks.
Very labour intensive. Interesting. This could be a marvelous job creation project. Especially if you have your own merino sheep. Thank you for sharing.
This video just made my day 😍 I love crocheting and appreciate everything that comes from mother Nature so this was like a remedy for my heart 😊 You're very skilled and patient woman and I have a huge respect for what you're doing ❤️🌹🐑🐑🐈 Thank you for sharing 👍
This seems so calming, but also like a lot of work! It’s a very impressive profession- you’re making the world a better place with your work! Thank you for what you do :)
super helpful, i didnt realize the different methods of prepping with different wools! im 3D printing a spinning machine right now and waiting to order a carding board, my best friend has sheep and told me i could have her extra wool.. im beyond exciting to start making my own yarn to use! 😁❤
I *need* a set of those viking combs! And the drum carder! Not to mention, I'd like a distaff, too, for spinning bast (long plant fibres, like linen and nettle) fibres. And I need to get my wheel over to my brother for repairs. Ah,well, the spindle provides me with lots of fun anyway
This was so fascinating! What was the wool first washed with and then later after it was spun into yarn? Makes you appreciate all of the work that goes into making the final product! I really enjoyed this!
I’ve always wanted to try this. It doesn’t seem practical as there are so many tools I don’t have. One thing I’m curious about is how many grams or yards of yarn can come from one average size sheep pelt? It’s difficult to get the scope of pelt to yarn.
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.
No wonder yarn cost so darn much. Amazing to see how yarn is made from sheep's wool. Thanks for sharing.

@@lezbae yarn is made from many things, but it's mostly either wool or acrylic. Cotton yarn is in the minority. Only about 10% of yarns in Ravelry's yarn database contain cotton, for instance
