Carding and handspinning Shetland wool. In the dye studio. Sew heaven. A Maker's Soapbox.

All the wool is a vlog all about handspinning yarn, processing wool, knitting, owning a wool mill, farm life and everything in between. This episode starts out at the wool mill where I am carding up some Shetland wool. Then we head to my studio where we dye up some wool and then take a quick pitstop by the fiber farm to say hi to the sheep. A little sewing talk is in here as I start the Dress #1 from 100 Acts of Sewing and I find myself in sewing heaven. Finally a little handspinning at my Majacraft and yes, a little politics as I review what's happening in the US this week.
