PLY Magazine is running a Spinalong to coincide with the launch of their book, 51 Yarns to Spin Before You Cast Off. You can post your entries on their Facebook, Instagram and Ravelry groups with the hashtags #51yarns, #handspunyarn and #plymagazine. There's a different theme each week and you can find a list of the topics and other information here: [ Ссылка ] The best part is that one winner each week gets a one-year subscription to PLY! I've decided to play along in video form as well by creating a video each week to correspond with that week's spinalong theme.

This week it's "True Woolen" and I face my demons (hand carders!) to spin a small sample of Oxford Down fleece and discover why trying to chain ply in the wrong chair is a disaster!

Next week's spinalong topic (starting Monday 7th May) is "2-Ply Yarn". Hope to see you again then!
