This episode takes you through some of the steps for spinning and dyeing yarn to knit a sweater. We start with some wool spinning at the spinning wheel. Then talk about prepping the finished yarn for dyeing and dye up a couple skeins. And finally we end with some swatching for the sweater. With a little Shetland sheep visit thrown in for fun.

The Ewethful mission...

Our mission at Ewethful Fiber Mill is to fill making hands with small batch American grown yarns and fibers. We strive to produce lightly processed products that maintain their character, have low environmental impact and tell the stories of the animals and shepherds from whence they came.
