And a gentle reminder that we don't always want the absolute finest for every purpose in spinning. Outerwear demands stronger fibers, but next to the skin wear doesn't. You'll want something strong for socks, but still somewhat soft. And a rug will require something that will take REALLY hard use. That's what's so wonderful about spinning our own yarns - we pick exactly what is right for the project!
And how about good old Aloe Vera for skin ailments? That's been useful to me at times. That liquid skin stuff is wonders for when I must spin silk. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Suzanne Correira, www.fireantranch.com in Elgin, TX Black Welsh & Shetland Sheep: Fibers, Yarns & Goods Roberta & Majacraft Wheels.
