Wool has been added to a drum carder to make a batt, starting with a cream base and then layers of different browns with blue and some dark purple striping added on top.

Having a blast learning how to use my new drum carder. 😊 This is my second batt in progress and it was a huge improvement over the first one. The cream base was much more consistent and solid and I’m getting the hang of adding bits of color.

A louet drum carder, taken from the front so you can see the power switch and drums.

Clumps of white wool on top of wool cards: wooden paddles with multiple metal hooks, kind of like giant dog combs.

Fluffy white wool.

White wool spun into yarn with lots of hairy bits.

Last year I met a shepherd who had tons of sakız sheep wool to give away. Sadly, the wool was clipped very short. Fortunately my cards are making usable roving from the wool. It will not make a soft yarn, but it will be yarn!
