Autumn has come

[theyoungwaldschrat]

Making nettle yarn!

Fresh nettles, stems, rhetted stems, peeling the stems, peeled raw fibre, carding the fibre, carded fibre, spinning the fibre, spun single yarn, twisted double yarn

300 nettles made about 60 m of twisted double. Not at all time efficient yet but a nice proof of concept for future work.

Summer’s green is gone, gently switched for autumn’s final feast, a fiery blaze, ‘til winter’s wasteland covers all in white and darkness drenches minds on murky days.
