Sample #9 Fiber: Cotton Weight of Skein: 60 grams |
Appl: #1600203 |
||
Spinning Equipment Used:
Flyer wheel, ratio 12:1 |
|||
Preparation for Spinning: The sliver was
pulled into strips to facilitate a smoother draw. Reason for Choice of this Sample: The cotton is longer stapled than many cottons, well prepared. It is a weak cotton and spinning a bulky yarn maximizes the strength. |

This sample was one of the first samples I completed; it was also one of the last. The first try was with white acala cotton and I felt it was too inconsistent. I had quite an aversion to spinning the sample; I don't find it appealing. |
