S1E10: New to Fleece
Working with fleece can be intimidating, let Maggie Casey help you fall in love with it. Using already clean fiber (from Good Clean Fiber) Maggie takes you step by step through her process of working with fleece. If you're brand new to it, don't worry, she starts you with what fiber to pick, then on to teasing, prepping (handcarding, flicking, combing with a flicker), and finally to spinning and comparing the yarns. Jacey pops in for a MAY at the end so get out your fiber and spin-a-long with her!
