Join me while I turn a raw Texel/Blue Faced Leicester sheeps fleece into a cable knit jumper.
Here's a break down of the time each section took -
Fleece washing 1 hour
Carding 16 hours 30 mins for 920g
Spinning 18 hours 30 mins for 1230m of two ply yarn.
knitting 61 hours
Bringing it to a grand total of 97 hours from sheep to sweater.
(It took me over 7 hours to create this video 😅)
The knitting pattern is a modified sweater No20 by My Favourite Things Knitwear.
I hope you enjoyed this longer version of the project, feel free to leave any questions in the comments below.
Thanks for watching!

Whenever you show your spinning progress, I'm always surprised that it goes much more quickly than I would have expected.
