People have oftentimes wondered if the ancient people who manually did some spinning, weaving and sewing found it difficult. They had to spin the clothes they had to wear by themselves from cotton, flax or wool. At present, people do not have to spin or weave fabric just so they could have something to wear. The shaft part of the spindle extends either above or below of the whorl and it is responsible for holding the yarn when it starts to be spun. A hook is also utilized in transferring the spin from the spindle and to the yarn. Making a spindle People can actually make their own spindles. They can even make use of materials that are usually available in hardware stores. As the spinner makes new yarn, the bobbin and flyer can turn in unison, but the spinner may choose to wind the yarn onto the bobbin. The flyer or the bobbin will slow down and then the yarn winds on. A part will slow down due to the brake band looping over the element. If the brake band is tight, the pull on the yarn increases, since there is more friction on the bobbin that needs to be overcome to turn together with the flyer. But of course, those who are brilliant will not need that long time and still be independent in their own field of producing woven bamboo products. The process The bamboo craftsman cuts the bamboo into very thin strips that are made of various sizes. Only one section of a bamboo should be cut and then it should be split in lots of vertical halves. They say that the weaving process used by the Jacquard loom is more economical for mills, so that all the fabrics can be woven quickly and in the best condition possible, regardless of the sophistication of the structure. About the Process Weaving involves interlacing a couple of thread sets at right angles to one another. More Fiber The spindle should be held by the right hand, while the left hand holds the leader. Spin the drop spindle away from the shaft in a clockwise motion. This is the same direction you will be using to successfully spin the yarn. You should start practicing to rotate the spindle correctly. Continue the process of spinning in the same direction until the time the leader starts to take in the twist.
