Dear Spinning Circle,
For those wishing to watch instead of listen, the Direct YouTube link here.
I have a real treat for you this month with Rebecca (@rebbiejaye) and Alide joining me on this episode of Wool n' Spinning Radio! They were able to join me to chat about harvesting and spinning Qiviut, some thoughts about Arctic life and Alide's experiences with Qivuit.
It was a lovely way to pass an evening and I want to say a special thank you to both of them for allowing me the time and space so that I could release this episode to you! If you choose to watch this month, Alide shares an actual Muskox hide with us and shows how she combs out the downy undercoat to be able to harvest the qiviut fibres.
Enjoy listening and/or watching!

Happy Spinning your luxury fibres this month!
Warmly,
Rachel
