07.01.2022 Craft Classes and Introduction to Fibre Many types of animals provide a fibre that is able to be used for spinning and many of there are readily available to spinners today thanks to new technology Fibre Structure and Characteristics... The Structure and characteristics of some of those fibres and some tips in how to recognize the potential of that fibre. The CHRISTAN hope is that this might prevent some of the disappointment that can occur when there is a mismatch between fibre and garment. We have started with the wool fibre as this is definitely the most common fibre used by spinners today and through out our recorded history. There are many breeds of sheep developed into agricultural flocks small and large and these have been used through out many geographical regions. This fibre is easily blended with many of the other fibres. Its popularity has wained some what over the last hundred years with the introduction of synthetic fibre but it is still the foremost natural fibre along with cotton and silk but there are many other fibre that are challenging that today. The more we find out about a fleece the better we will be able to judge a suitable use for it.
