I'm trying to hold my spinning fiber and single in process away from my cat who has jumped up on my lap
The one time I do NOT want a cat on my lap...

I'm working on improvements to the Pocket Loom - this should help warp threads stay on the heddle better!

Three knitted beanies in different colors, with folded-up brims.

The thought process of “what kind of feedback would I want to hear if I were them?” has always served me well.
Probably, yes, though any time it gets wet it’ll smell like wet dog. Spinners in my guild have had the best results blending it with another fiber like merino wool.
A Mobius loop cowl, made with nalbinding
It's done! Made from Lang Aurora, a deliciously soft 100% alpaca single-ply yarn.

Needle-tensioned nalbinding looks great and all, and I love the finished product but BOY HOWDY does it take FOREVER

A ball of yarn surrounded by four swatches, each made with a different craft: knitting, crochet, weaving, and nalbinding
Swatches for Baa Ram Ewe's Meadow yarn are done! I really enjoyed working with this one.

Baby latches on your kitchen cupboards are 100% worth it, in my experience. I use the 3M adhesive ones with a strap, where you move a little tab sideways to open them. So far they’ve all lasted 10 years without breaking or wearing out.
A small piece of nalbinding in progress, with the nalbinding needle woven through the fabric
One of my students at my recent nalbinding workshop sent me this - she's making great progress!

Holy yarn balls, we've made it to 2,000 sales on Etsy!

You could try DMC Cordonnet, if I remember correctly it's made in France
Making progress on the alpaca cowl - I'm still not 100% sold on this color palette but we'll see how it looks when it's done.

Best of luck! Feel free to reach out if you‘re still stuck after the workshop :)
It can be tricky to get the movements down at first, but once you get it, everything else is very simple. Bonsai Woman on YouTube has the beginner tutorials that made the most sense to me, and I put together a step-by-step based photo guide at nalbinding.net/get-started too. Hope this all helps!
Lizbeth thread is generally what I recommend, since it’s spun tighter than crochet cotton and most yarns. I think Hobby Lobby usually has some in store, but you can also order it online directly from Handy Hands if you prefer.
It's done! This luscious merino wool cowl is off to its forever home soon.
