| "Spinning Cotton" by Stephenie Gaustad | "Know Your Wheel" by Alden Amos |
| Take a virtual trip to sit in Stephenies kitchen and see cotton spun. The processes of ginning, carding, willowing and puni making precede spinning on several spindles (ahka, beadwhorl and tahkli as well as charkhas) and standard flyer bobbin wheels. See the progress from seed cotton to set, finished yarn. Hot mug of tea not included. | This double DVD set features a lively interview with Alden Amos on the first disc. The topics are basic and include lubricating your wheel (where, when, with what and how much), what to do with your drivecord and is it important?, what makes your wheel go "clunk", and answers to "why won't my wheel take up my yarn?". |
