Here are some picture albums of various techniques.

Spinning Related

Joining. Whether you are joining two ends of your singles during weaving or adding a freshly spun section to a skein on your winder, this technique works. No knots!

Single Spindle Project. Use your first handspun to make a mug rug on a 4" Weavette.

For Knitters... On plying, and a new spin on globalization.

Weaving Related

Weaving with singles as weft. It's easier than you imagine, it's fast, and you have many opportunities to play with color and yarn energy.

Shaping Cloth. There are various ways to shape cloth. The ones I am currently playing with involve crepe twist yarn combined with weave structure and permanent pleating with woven shibori.

Projects and samples using my yarns, mostly related to pleats and stretchy fabrics.
