Provide enough yarn to slip the hook back on using two inches to loosen the end fibers. Joining the Fibers You can overlap the wool some inches just over the fibers to catch and twist into the leader. Let the twist run into the joined fibers. You can add more twist by turning the spindle before you make new lengths of yarn. The difference in the spend will continually wind the yarn right onto the bobbin. The difference in speed or ratio is changed by the size of the whorls, as well as the tension of the drive band. The drive band on the double drive wheel is made of non-stretch twine or yarn. Sometimes, candlewick can be used. Spinning Tips The hands will repeat the pinch, pull and slide motions, while the lower hand will sometimes reach down to rotate the spindle. When you practice, you will feel the constant motion. The yarn will be strong enough to support the movement. Wind by keeping the yarn from tangling then catch behind the elbow. Puff refers to the quality of the first fiber that is ideal for spinning. There are several ways and reasons why you should prepare your own fiber. Using prepared fiber, you can spin immediately. Choose medium-grade wool in batt or roving/top form. The fiber should ideally hang well when you hold it slowly. The Unique Structures The bobbins are put inside a shuttle that will support the weft thread through the shed. Different weave structures can be created by the raising and lowering of warp threads. Some of the weaves you can expect include plain weave, twill weave, complex computer-generated interlacing and satin weave. Textile products are perishable, so historians have a hard time finding the exact beginnings of weaving. Only very few woven fabrics are still present today, since there are several elements that can damage and deteriorate the materials, like insects, erosion, fire and climatic situations. Researchers have found that some fabrics maintain its condition remarkably well in cool and sealed areas.
