Carding

History has it that children used to card wool. It certainly seems to have a learning curve. But I think I'm getting better. Did an internet search and found some videos which helped a LOT. I'm improving but I still need to get "the rythym" down. And I think I'm carding too much. But then it could be the wool I'm working with just needs more work.

I found good directions and videos at these two sites:

Joy of Handspinning: How to Card

And Canadian Museum: Teasing and Carding
