Each video I post during TdF will hopefully cover a different aspect of my spinning process so it’s not just me rambling about the same thing over and over. :)
Links to fibre suppliers and dyers, etc. (none are affiliates or sponsors, I just love them). Most of my progress updates will be over Instagram so come over to join the fun!

Team Stashdashers
For the 2nd year in a row I’m on Team Stashdashers, hosted by Melly Knits on Instagram. Melly is THE BEST, she hand processes wool fleece and cards up the most amazing batts. There are 300+ of us in the team this year and our only rule is to spin from our stash! #stashdashers
About TdF
Tour de Fleece runs alongside the Tour de France, and it’s a 3 week period where us yarny spinners have fun spinning as much as we can! It’s definitely a sport but it’s all about having fun, sharing and learning.
Stunning. Yours look so smooth. Super inspired for August to work in my spinning more.
Your work is absolutely beautiful! Great job and very inspirational ❤
I was so skeptical of adding that teal in as the third skein in your last video, but it turned out so lovely! It's by far my favorite.
@@TheStaticEmbrace honestly, it ended up not being the vibe I originally set out to make (really soft neutrals) but I love it so much more this way! Can’t wait to knit it up into something fun!
They all look great, but the colours in the first one have my heart!
@@TylerLouie85 agreed! It’s so casually happy 🥰
Lovely, lovely \(^-^)/
