The yarn will be amazing as he is one of the best spinners in britain
Yes, but no matter how amazing, it will still be mill spun yarn.
Hand spinning will not return much of a profit
It can though, I am spinning for customers who
are selling the yarn at a profit. The fact that it is handspun rather than mill spun is the selling point.
Please note that I'm not touting for business by posting this. I have far too much work at the moment! I am just tired of hearing that mill spun wool is the ONLY option. What suits one person, or one market does not always suit another.
If you have your own fleeces, it is entirely up to you what you do with them!
My personal opinion is that Shetland is suited to handspinning. If your wool has special features, such as bleached ends or colour variation, this can be preserved when handpsun, but will be lost through mill carding and spinning.
BUT, this is my personal opinion. Some people looking to have their wool processed may totally disagree and will choose what
they think is the best option for their fibre.
