#spinning mint

[mossy-fiber-arts]

Wait ive got a bunch of mint stems from my battle with the apple mint the previous resident planted in our yard. Theyre tall and difficult to break so they might have bast fibers. I might be able to spin them

Ive watched a lot of videos about processing flax so i could prob figure this out… they need to dry out first right? Then i could either rett them or try and comb all the vegetable matter out??

Okay i found someone talking about wind retting their milkweed so i think im gonna try that for this mint, since its slower—i was trying to pull apart some dried mint stems and they LOOKED like fiber so we‘ll see how well this works. Not like im using it for anything else!!
