Скачать или смотреть Questionable Blend 3 - 100% Bamboo Gourami by World of Wool. Spinning From the Fold

This video accompanies my blog post on the various ways of spinning ‘Questionable Blends’. I’m using the word ‘questionable’ to describe any vertically blended top that contains colours from more than half of the colour wheel. The kinds of blends that would cast doubt in the minds of even the most experienced of spinners and have them questioning how it might turn out.

Most of the blends that I’ve chosen for this series are highly likely to turn ever so slightly grey or brown if no attention is paid to colour management, and the colours are allowed to optically blend together.

This particular fibre is Gourami from World of Wool and it's 100% bamboo - https://www.worldofwool.co.uk/product...

All of the yarns in this series will be spun on my Electric Eel Wheel 6 - (Affiliate link) - https://www.dreamingrobots.com/produc...

In this video, I'm spinning from the fold. I'm effectively spinning the colours one after the other which tends to result on a more colourful speckled yarn This top is particularly well blended so it’s very tricky to still keep the colour separate so optical blending is inevitable.
