    My 2nd grader had the word WEAVE today as part of his spelling homework. He didn't know what it meant, after I explained the meaning. I came to youtube to show him a video of how it worked. This was so informative! We watched together and we were fascinated! He said he can't wait to tell his teacher about not only weaving, but how it comes from sheep and ends up as a scarf! That's a huge deal for us. Thank you for putting this together and breaking it down so nicely

      @@agnetegrenild1588 Look into joining a spinning guild in your area when the Cov settles. An inexpensive way to start is with a student spindle kit from The Woolery. Then here on UA-cam you can learn to make a simple Backstrap loom to weave. No need to buy a lot of expensive equipment to start the fiber journey! That scarf can be easily made by spindle spun yarn and a backstrap loom. Then if you love it all invest in equipment. Fleeces can be bought at Fiber Festivals and the wool dyes from Dharma Trading. Best Wishes to a fabulous lifestyle & hobby! Hobby farms generally require a separate income. Happy New Year.

      Hands down the best learn to spin book on a wheel is by Anne Fields. ‘Spinning Wool: Beyond the Basics’. One book covers it all from types of fleece, cleaning, methods of spinning. If you want to dabble cheap intro. “Respect the Spindle” Lot of wannabes late to the party really not experts authors who write about a new hobby to waste your money on.

    I never understood how clothing was made. This really opened my eyes. I still don't understand exactly what you do on the loom, but I see how it flips the vertical position of the two lines of wool to trap the middle line and create the over and under pattern that is used in clothing. This is cool!

    Many years ago, I learned to card wool, spin it with a spindle and a spinning wheel, and weave it at UC Davis's Craft Center. It was one of the most wonderful things I have ever learned to do, along with throwing ceramic pots on a wheel. I have knitted since the age of 6 and crocheted since the age of 8. I learned how to sew not long afterward and I love doing all kinds of things with yarn and threads and fabric. I guess I will always enjoy this. I envy the fact that you have a weaving loom. I only hope I can teach some of what I know to the younger generations, especially now that I have a granddaughter. I would love to spend a year on your farm and learn even more about sheep, carding, dyeing wool, spinning, and weaving.

I don't think I'd be able to fully commit to dropping my life and starting a farm (definitely would consider it if someone that knew more about it asked me to join them) but I would love to be able to produce linen for friend crafters (im much better at working with plants than animals), grow my own harvest, make my own soap, etc.
      Right now I'm focusing on getting through college so I can get a job, and someday that job will pay for a little homestead where I'll be able to do all my little projects.

    I loved watching every step of the process! It's incredible to think about the number of hours that go into making one scarf, but I guess that's what makes it so satisfying. I can only imagine what a thrill it is to be involved with a project from the very beginning! Did you say it takes three months for you to get your yarn after you've delivered the wool to the spinning place? That seems like a long time to wait! Thanks again for sharing. And you're right, there's no amount of money that would suffice to pay you appropriately for the amount of work. But if the person who buys your work appreciates and values it, then it's got to be gratifying!

    That was such a great informational video. We watched it because Christoper Columbus' father was a wool weaver. Thank you for sharing with us! We loved the colors you chose for your yarn.

    Great video - I am slowly learning aspects of what you do, and even more slowly acquiring land, critters and equipment - but from critter to sweater is my goal! Thanks for your inspiration - again, great video......xx

    WOW!! I'M TOTALLY IMPRESSED! This is a very intricate process. I really appreciate your attention to detail. It must be very satisfying to create something "from wool of sheep". I'm reading a book " Empire of Cotton" by Sven Beckert. On page xiii (introduction) He states that "it would take approximately 7 billion sheep to produce a quantity of wool equivalent to the world's current cotton crop." FASCINATING!!!! I love wool and textiles. Thank you very very much. I'll never take wool or cotton for granted after wating your video!

    My son is Autistic and in the Scouts. He is earning the Textile merit badge and your video really helped him understand the process from sheering to fabric. Thank you for sharing. :)
