Welcome to this month's Wool n' Spinning Radio! Thank you for joining me! I'm really excited to share this month's episode with you because it was recorded just a couple of weeks ago after Becca and I finished all of our spinning for the study. https://www.patreon.com/posts/wool-n-spinning-17020143If you are a long time Patron subscriber, you will be familiar with how these studies happen but for those who are new, I thought I would briefly recap. In late September, Katrina and I announced our plans for this study. We really wanted to focus this round on combination spinning since both of us absolutely love combo spinning. It was timely because there’d been the craze on Instagram over combo spinning for sweater quantities of yarn, which we’d explored in the past on the show, in the community, through the blog and on Ravelry. There are several ideas behind this colour study:Exploring our comfort with colour often begins with studying the colour wheel and understanding how colour can play together in fibre, yarn and fabric,Those many braids of fibre in our stash that we’ve collected aren’t that different from one another as we begin to pull them out and line them up (after all, there are only so many colours in said colour wheel!), and finally,Combining colours, without having to spin different fibres at the same time, is a great way to be introduced to a new (or new-ish) fibre while focusing on colour!The previous Wool n' Spinning Radio episode with Felicia Lo that addressed colour management, the colour wheel and combing colours (although we got woefully off topic) is here. I hope you enjoy listening this month!As always, happy spinning,-r. I hope you enjoyed our conversation. If this is your first time tuning into Wool n’ Spinning Radio, welcome.
