  • I'm not sure...I can't really follow what they are doing, it looked complicated ^^ But it does look to be something like that.

  • @alejandra025able a small village in rural Peru

  • Thank you for sharing. My students are singing a little song about spinning wool and I will show them this.

  • She is very skillful and very fast!

  • they said sheep's wool. i love the little spindle!

  • is taht mexico ?

  • she is using a bottom whorl drop spindle and pre-drafting the fiber before adding the twist and winding it onto the 'cop' of the spindle.....

  • So you just pull and twist?

  • Is it sheep's wool or alpaca fiber she's spinning? Looks like sheep's wool, but video title says alpaca....

  • Pretty cool!
