This month, we are exploring spiral plied yarn on The Wool Circle (check Patreon for the 7-day free trial to learn more) as an entry point to a different sock construction (gimp sock yarn!) and spinning textured yarns! Links in profile. Welcome! #woolnspinning

Good morning from Andrew! #barncatsofbluesky

A good leap-forward morning to you, from Andrew! #barncats #threewatersfarm

It’s the end of the day, EST, especially since we will spring forward tomorrow. Sweet dreams, everyone! Sing Me to Sleep, on Fine Polwarth wool. Threewatersfarm.etsy.com

I started a new spindle to finish this spin: almost there! #threewatersfarmfiber #topwhorlspindle #handspinning

Sunny day, blue skies, and Andrew! #barncats #threewatersfarm

Still moving forward; loving this slow pace. #threewatersfarmfiber #topwhorlspindle #handspunyarn #spindlespunyarn

Andrew stopping forward progress.

The first finished spin in months. My spinning has taken a back seat to life lately so it feels good to get back to it. Sweater weather on mixed BFL by @threewatersfarm.bsky.social #handspun #handspinning #wool #yarn #schachtflatiron #threewatersfarm

Good morning, everyone! Have a beautiful day! #threewatersfarm

Progress! Spinning a little every day on this one. I’m really into PROCESS right now — no deadlines, no project in mind, just spinning. #topwhorlspindle #threewatersfarmfiber #woolroving #handspunyarn

Good morning! Wishing you the best of everything today and everyday!

@threewatersfarm.bsky.social has gorgeous fiber at reasonable prices. www.etsy.com/shop/threewa...

This is a sleeper project. In 2024, I spun on it once a week. I’ve decided to make that once a day in 2025. The spindle on the left is a Vermont spindle and it is wonderful! I’ve decided to spin the rest of the project on beginner spindles.

Good morning from Andrew!

Coming along, staple by staple.

It’s coming along! #woolroving #spinningfiber #threewatersfarmfiber

They are not in agreement about what’s most important right now. #catsinabarn #barncats #feedingtime

Quintessence and Violet Essence, both dyed on Fine Polwarth wool. Threewatersfarm.etsy.com

Bit by bit… I dyed this merino 20+ years ago. I chained it up and stored it, and it is still as soft and spinnable as if I’d dyed it last week.

Andrew’s post.

I’m spinning in chunks from the fold. The fiber is Merino, and the colorway is Semi-Precious. #topwhorlspindle #handspinning #merinowool #threewatersfarmfiber #threewatersfarm

Another project that is part of my year’s long Learn to Crochet efforts. I will chain-ply these singles, and make more squares. I have no plan at present for a final project; the yarn and squares will suffice for now! #threewatersfarmfiber #learntocrochet #handspuncrochet #fiberarts #handspinning

Stretching into Monday! Have a good day!

Morning cat crew.

So much rain here! Even with our current cold temps, spring is always around the corner her in the (mostly) sunny South! Spring Wash on Falkland Wool. Falkland is a treat; open and easy to draft and spin. Threewatersfarm.etsy.com

Sweet little “mrow” at the end. 😸

Some more singles handspun granny squares. My tension is evening out, and I have more confidence than I used to. ☺️ #handspunyarn #handspinning #crochet #threewatersfarmfiber #woolroving

I’ve been working on my crochet skills, slowly (oh, so slowly!) and I am making some progress. The yarn is a handspun single of our colorway Quintessence.

I don’t think I could work in an office again because I couldn’t spin while thinking about whatever problem. This spindle is in reach for just that. #fiberarts #handspinning #supportspinning #supportedspindle #spindlespinning #yarn #wool #Rambouillet #WillowsSpindles #ThreeWatersFarm🧶

It’s “How Many Babies Guessing Game season!” How many kids does JJ have in there?

Andrew’s least favorite weather is cold+rain, so I carried him down to the barn. (Of course, he walked up from the barn to let me know how unhappy he was about it… 😹)

I’m trying out one of my new French spindles today, with some hand combed Castlemilk Moorit fleece. The spiral groove on the spindle holds the thread without the need for a half hitch to prevent the spindle from falling. #handspinning #suspendedspinning #shortsuspensionspinning #distaffspinning

Andrew wants to know how long it will be before I refresh his kitty crunchies. Not long, Buddy, not long.

From @threewatersfarm.bsky.social out of NC we have spinning fiber. The first two are to make sock yarn (Merino and nylon) and the third I just couldn’t resist as it’s a gorgeous blend of BFL and Tussah. #Spinning #Fiber #Yarn #IndieDyed #Wool 🧶

This Polwarth is very fine, open, and way to spin. It has lots of POOF! Sing Me to Sleep on Fine Polwarth wool. Threewatersfarm.Etsy.com
