Woven Shadows Yarn Collection
This gorgeous shadow weave scarf was designed, spun and woven by Rebecca Winter and shown in Spin Off Magazine Winter 2025 issue! Woven on 6-shafts, this shadow weave scarf is a great way to use your own handspun cotton yarn, or if you don’t want to spin the yarn, 8/2 cotton is a close substitute. We have collected the sliver or yarn needed for this project, and you can choose to order either a sliver or yarn collection. The instructions are not included with the yarns or the EZ spin sliver. You can get the instructions from Long Thread Media. Click here for instructions.
Hand Spinning Cotton Book
Olive and Harry Linder were early advocates for hand spinning cotton. They wrote this book in the 1970s, at a time when no other books on cotton were available. Joan Ruane and Irene Schmoller were some of their early students, and Joan has updated the original book and created this revised edition. From preparation of the cotton, spinning techniques, dyeing and weaving your handspun yarn is included in this version.
