The Spinners Notebook - All About Wool...
A book about Wool...from Dream Come True Farm
Pam Blasko - Dream Come True Farm
The Spinners Notebook is designed to assist spinners and knitters in collecting and documenting samples of their favorite fleeces, roving and yarns. Make notes about quality, characteristics, purchases, etc. Write all over it and make it your fiber diary. What worked? What didn't? Include sketches, photos or swatches of your handspun or fiber sample.
You will find information and actual fleece, roving or even handspun yarn samples (30 plus) on some of the most wonderful breeds. ...but it is only a small dent in the list of choices. Thus, I added a section called "My Favorites" for you to add your favorite fleeces, knitted swatch, yarns or blends -- and don't forget to tape a sample of the fleece or a piece of handspun or a swatch in the space provided. In addition to "My Favorites" there will be a section for your "Patterns," and "Dyer's notes,"with instructions and suggestion for natural plant dyeing with samples of some natural dyed yarn. Everything you need to keep a complete informative diary on all of your fiber arts projects. In the beginning of the book there is some important reading on endangered sheep and more. This is a great tool that you help build yourself as you add all of your experiences and we add more along the way. A MUST HAVE BOOK FOR THE FIBER FANATIC!
Finally, the Notebook includes information about the Shepherd's who supplied the samples so that you can contact them for more of these wonderful fleeces! This book will grow with you as you expand your fiber experiences.
*this is not a professionally bound book, this is a notebook put together here on our farm
