Blue Barn Fiber: July 2014
http://bluebarnfiber.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Spinning Fiber and Handspun Yarn. Tuesday, July 22, 2014. How to Choose A Fleece. A lot of new spinners are excited to dive into the world of spinning, but it can be a bit overwhelming to start from raw fleece when you don't know what to look for. And Shetland is not the only type of fiber that is like this - nearly all breeds of sheep will have some variations which cause certain fleeces to be more valuable or more suited to each person's particular needs. We purchase raw fleeces from various farmers ac...

Blue Barn Fiber: How we started
http://bluebarnfiber.blogspot.com/2013/04/how-we-started.html
Spinning Fiber and Handspun Yarn. Thursday, April 25, 2013. Blue Barn Fiber started out as a dream, and it has slowly evolved into a beautiful reality. I always knew that I wanted to someday have my own farm. I have surrounded myself with animals my entire life and often feel that I identify with animals better than most humans. We have a long way to go. Currently, we buy fiber from local farmers and shepherds and we clean it and resell it to other fiber artists. We strive to only purchase cruelt...We ar...

Blue Barn Fiber: Spinning Technique: Cabled Yarn
http://bluebarnfiber.blogspot.com/2013/06/spinning-technique-cabled-yarn.html
Spinning Fiber and Handspun Yarn. Saturday, June 8, 2013. Spinning Technique: Cabled Yarn. Still, there are times when spinning techniques are important to understand. I've always believed that it's OK to break certain creative rules, but you need to know the rules before you should break them. So that's where this blog comes in: I'd like to talk about a few of the more interesting spinning techniques, and why I think they are awesome! For this post, I'm going to focus on cable spinning, AKA "Cabled Yarn".

Blue Barn Fiber: January 2015
http://bluebarnfiber.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Spinning Fiber and Handspun Yarn. Sunday, January 4, 2015. Bella from Granny's Alpacas. Alpaca was the first fiber that I ever got my hands on as a spinner. I remember being amazed at how one breed could have such a wide variety of fiber, and how most of it was not scratchy the way I have come to know most commercially bought woolen garments to be. A tumbler is an absolute must-have if you have a herd of alpacas and don't want to spend hours and hours picking through their fiber! Medium: 26-28.9 micr...

If it involves fiber I want to experience it and share with you. Crochet, granny square, hook, hookin. May 23, 2016. My oldest project that got me into fiber… Deep deep into fiber…. Was a crocheted afghan. The squares are different sizes. I don’t know how much blocking will accomplish, but who cares it’s a mess anyways. It will always be special because this is where it started. Let’s do it! It’s been I don’t know 5 or 6 years? I need to finish this damn blanket already. December 3, 2014. May 17, 2016.

Blue Barn Fiber: September 2014
http://bluebarnfiber.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Spinning Fiber and Handspun Yarn. Wednesday, September 24, 2014. How to Oven Dye Fiber. Today I put together a video tutorial showing how I use the oven method to dye my wool, yarn, and roving. I used Milk Fiber in the video and created our Deep Sea Rolags out of the fiber. Hopefully this video will show people just how easy it is to paint your own wool or yarn and pop it in the oven.
