A fancy wrist distaff

wrote: Hi spinners, I was shopping in Hobby Lobby today and noticed the fancy beaded tassels. I decided they would make wonderful wrist distaffs. I got one that was not too heavy for $2.99. It works quite well and is very attractive. Cathy Hello Cathy: It is neat to find an unrelated item and make it work for spinning weaving or any other textile technique. Good for you.....I have made them from kumihimo braiding as well. I also saw a photo recently of an aboritional woman who had her roving rapped three or four times loosly around her wrist and was spinning from it that way. I always have problems with my roving when I try drop spindle spinning it always gets in the way. I do most of my spinning on my three wheels....LOL for obvious reasons. Els -- delete doba to email me.....:=)) |
