I am just about comfortable spinning worsted on my spindle. Woolen preparation and long draw still remains a mystery. Hopefully some day I 'll get there. Great pictures and explanation in your article.

Thank you for this! I inherited a some wool (at least one fleece, maybe two? I don’t know if they’re full fleeces tho, plus random pieces of fleece and maybe batts? I have no idea what they’re called) from my mom. She had quit spinning a few years before she died, and I haven’t really put in the time to get the hang of it yet. I’m dipping my toes in the vernacular, so I truly appreciate the photos and descriptions!

Thank you, Judy, for this info. I've never understood the difference between woolen and worsted and this helped me a lot!
