51 Yarns — 7: Tailspinning

*I love helping people learn about fibre arts... I also have to pay the bills!

PLY Magazine is running a Spinalong to coincide with the launch of their book, 51 Yarns to Spin Before You Cast Off. You can post your entries on their Facebook, Instagram and Ravelry groups with the hashtags #51yarns, #handspunyarn and #plymagazine. There's a different theme each week and you can find a list of the topics and other information here: https://plymagazine.com/ply-books/51-... The best part is that one winner each week gets a one-year subscription to PLY! I've decided to play along in video form as well by creating a video each week to correspond with that week's spinalong theme.

This week it's "Tailspinning". Something I've never tried before and in a category I'm not naturally drawn to. Consequently I've tried to keep this feeling like a true spinalong, not a tutorial — come and watch me struggle!

If you'd like to see the results of the Gotland tailspinning, keep an eye on my Instagram: tinyfibrestudio

Next week's spinalong topic (starting Monday 21st May) is "Self-Striping". Hope to see you again then!
