July 2018 – Plying

This month’s meeting was lead by Maggie, who discussed different types of plying and their structures, and demonstrated Navajo plying. The benefits of navajo plying in relation to preserving colour sequences was also discussed and demonstrated in a lovely sweater spun from natural colours of Jacob fleece, and various samples.

What to do with leftover singles was also discussed, leading on to talking about Andean plying. Many members brought their wheels and both had a go at navajo plying, and worked on their own projects.
