This month's Wool n' Spinning Radio is a conversation between Katrina, Becca and myself about the most recent breed and colour study that we have been engaging in as a community. This study comes to an end this month - I hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have!
This study was meant to push people outside of their comfort zones as much as possible. While the colours may not have appealed to you, the goal of this study was to step outside of our individual 'typical' colour palates to create something that would offer a lot of learning. Our conversation includes the inspiration for this study, sheep breeds and wool, decisions we made when starting to spin, and thoughts for the future.
Here is a link to Becca's project that she spun with her gradient Targhee set she mentions in the show, as well as her Breed & Colour Study project page. And here is my project page for this study.
I hope you enjoy our (slightly longer that usual) conversation!
