by Kate Larson

Wool is the most popular of spinning fibers and even though it seems ubiquitous, there’s always so much to learn. In this guide, Kate Larson reviews different types of wool and their properties, and then takes the reader from skirting and sorting a fleece to washing, preparing, and spinning. Also included are chapters on working with prepared fibers, storing wool, and preventing and managing infestations.
