A special feature video!
Today's adventure includes getting the Schacht Flatiron set up and ready for some chain plying, often called Navajo plying.
I finished up spinning the bobbin of Nest Fiber Studio from the last video (here), so it was all ready to go! Just a refresher, the fiber was from the March 2017 club shipment, and is the Fluorite colorway on Finn wool.
I will talk about the finished yarn (after soaking and thwacking) in Episode 149.
Want to know more about plying yarn? Here's a playlist I will keep updating with new resources.
