That hanaui wool is supposedly incredible. I guess the scarcity drives the crazy price too. I’d love to spin some one day! They post photos of the raw fleece on instagram and it makes me want to drool!
When you play violin and recorder, what music do you like to play? Do you have a baroque violin? What recorder do you play on? 440? 415? 466?
So cool that there are people out there that are on my bizzarre wavelength combining fiber arts, violin, recorder.
If you say you’re into genetics and pathophysiology of sleep disorders, I may have a stroke…
466?! Settle down nerd!!! 😂 I have many recorders and all but one are 440, I have a resin alto by Vincent Bernolin in 415 that I love, I wish I also had one in modern pitch. I believe Bernolin also has some van eyck style soprano recorders which I badly want as well. I don’t have a baroque violin but love playing baroque music on my modern set up. I mostly play for regional symphony gigs, so whatever is on the program, for fun I play solo Bach and solo Ysaye.
The Haunui top and commercially available Haunui yarn I’ve seen are at kind of typical prices for fine wool, the batt was more than double the price of the top due to the hand carding. Noro has a Haunui yarn in all natural colors that is $20 per ball, they also have a cotton blend and silk blend. I haven’t tried any of them but I’d like to!
I am NOT involved with genetics and sleep disorders.. yet :-)
for unsolicited work-on-the-lace-project motivation, i offer u this: when u posted about *ur* new lace/cobweb weight project, i was motivated to return to working on *my* lace project 👼🏻
I really need to make time for spinning. I have my first proper spin plied and all but I need to find a project for it. It’s about a worsted to bulky but my 1970s ashford traditional means all my hanks are super short so I think the best I can do is a hat or maybe a cowl… but I want to show it off!

What book(s) are you “reading” currently?
Book 3 in the Earthsea Cycle by Ursula K Leguin. I read a whole chapter last night. 💅
