Скачать или смотреть Making Beautiful Rolags From Scrap Fiber | Valentine Spin

I’ve never really made proper rolags before this. I’ve only spun a couple in the past, and I didn’t love them.

But blending board rolags are pure eye candy. All those soft layers, the gentle spiral, the color control — I had a pile of pinks, mauves, and lavender scraps sitting on my table, and I wanted to see if I could turn them into something beautiful and actually spin-worthy.

In this video I experiment with making Valentine-inspired rolags from random bits of wool, focusing on color blending, texture, and that satisfying spiral roll-off moment. Then I spin a sample to see if they’re just pretty… or truly spinnable.

Are rolags your favorite prep? Or do you prefer combed top or batts?

Let me know in the comments — I’m still learning.
