A wonderful welcome to @carry.cherry spindles coming this Tuesday on March 19th at 1pm EST. If you have never tried these spindles before, you are in for a treat! I have my own personal collection of these tools and they are earthy and a pleasure to spin. I take them with me when I leave the house and have a little spin. There will be tiny turks and small turks that will be available for the shop update. The weights range from 11 grams to 29 grams. The selection of wood are Zebra, Bird Cherry, Blackwood and Oak. If you have any questions, please let me know.

You take my breathe away fleece.... I don't if it's knowing where it came from, if it's the colours that makes me inspired to do it or maybe because it supported a farm. It makes me so happy to be able to create, experience and be curious. This fleece came from a local farm in Canada where the farmer takes care of her flock like her babies, with love and care. This one is Houdini who always "es-ca-pe" (from Nemo the movie). #stashdashers #tdf2023 #tourdefleece #spinnersofinstagram #spinningfleece #icelandic #canadianwool
Good morning everyone! First announcement for today, the Pre-order for the January Fibre calendar is up on the website. You can see all the fibre options available at www.akarayarns.com. I will be leaving the listing up for awhile. If you have any questions, please send me an email. My DM is usually flooded with mesages The inspiration for this is January. Here in Canada, it can be quite cold and it is very nice to have little bits of wooly fibre to open. Obviously, I will be keeping some a calendar for myself 😂 The colours will be posted today under my profile. #akarayarns #akarafibres #akara #handdyedfiber #spinnersofinstagram #spinningfibre #spinnersofig #handspunyarn #handspunknitting
