Think Spincycle yarns without the extortionate price tag. They sell yarn for about £32 per 50g - yes really! That makes my beautiful yarn an absolute bargain.

Spinning is my hobby, not a business. As long as I cover my costs I'm happy, hence why my prices are so good. 

I spin yarns using a top whorl hand spindle using a variety of high quality fibres such as alpaca, llama, yak, silk, many, many types of superior wool (around 20 types), plus flax, linen and others. I don't use cheap coarse wool fibre like Jacob, Ryeland, Welsh, Swaledale, Cheviot, Romney etc. For safety, I would never use nylon as it melts at high temperature. 

I do not cheat by using a spinning wheel or machine of any kind and then have the cheek to call it "hand" spun!  Check with sellers what process they use if not specified. 

Each 50gm takes around 6 to 8 hours to spin, 2 hours to ply and time for soaking and setting the twist for which I use a frame with an exact one yard wrap for counting the yardage. 

Unlike most other spinners I don't do super chunky yarn. I prefer DK, sock and some beautiful lace weight yarn. This can take 5 x longer to produce than the "thicker is quicker" yarns.

Now the boring stuff: Please do not bid or buy if you really don't want, or can't afford, to pay. If you win you buy. I do expect payment promptly. I am always happy to combine shipping. Please pay and I will refund any excess postage in your parcel.
