Description

Fibers combs all are designed to give the spinner lovely top to spin.  But with such a wide variety of type of combs available to the spinner, how does one decide which is right for them?  That is the question I talk about in this podcast, discussing things I know from experience, and from internet research.
One interesting webpost I discovered was about a person's attempt to recreat an old Icelandic comb, which was probably used both from human and animal hair.  That site can be found here.
Several web sources to purchase combs are:
Forsyth Combs
Woodland Woolworks
Susan's Fiber Shop
The music today is from Music Alley
The interlude is by Blake  and is called The Hungarian Love Song
The closing song is by Debbie Cunningham  and is the jazz classic, My Funny Valentine
 
Until later, happy spinning!

Join me as each time I either prep fiber for spinning, or sit at my spinning wheel. There is also music and stories while we spin our fiber into yarn.
