Welcome!  This is a periodic podcast all about my experiences making yarn through the process of spinning.  All areas of the process are discussed, and there will be something here for any spinner, novice or experienced.  There is a Ravelry group for podcast listeners, called Yarnspinnerstales Spin In. Please join us there.

Did you know that angora rabbits come in dyelots?  I talk about this and many other hopefully helpful explanations of how to process and spin that angora fiber you bought (and have stashed forever).

All the music in this podcast is provided by Clare Dowling through the podsafe music network.  She sings with a group known as The Moot, so that is the webpage to which you will be directed.  I featured her and her music in this show, because I am using her song Spinning Wheel, as my opening theme song.  The interludes between parts of the show are from her Acoustic Blues, and the show ends with Misunderstood.

To view the photos I talk about in the podcast please go to my blog.

Next show will be the spin-in for the month, see you then!

listened to this one today, and it was awesome hearing about spinning angora. never thought to try it, but i like your little suggestions to use it for mitten cuffs and whatnot. good stuff!
the sound is getting a lot better!! which is great, because sometimes in the earlier ones, i worry i\\\'m missing vitally important details and steps! hahaha.
thanks for teaching!
