Hand Woolcombing and Spinning
by Peter Teal
Hardcover book in new condition with some minor shelfware and a little bit warping of cover, 1976, 184 pages
Here is a book for hand-spinners who aspire to a high standard of professional excellence in their work. The book rediscovers many of the old methods and applies modern technological principles to the forgotten trade of woolcombing. It explains how to make the tools, how to prepare, dye, and blend the fibre, and finally how to spin a worsted yarn of controlled quality and specification.
