A
2 hour video for the new or novice producer. It covers the 12 months of
management. Looks at all the important aspects of ewe selection, breeding,
feeding, lambing, veterinary procedures, medications and more, through to
the finished lamb. A must for any novice sheep producer. Many of our VERY
satisfied customers say, “I wish I had this video earlier”.
Here are some other actual

Working
with Wool - SPINNING
120
minutes
|
|
Delia Burge has been working with wool for literally decades. It has been
a keen hobby and also a worthwhile business for her.
Delia has also concentrated on the marketing side of her wool, and
as such is an active member of the Water Street Studio in Pictou, Nova
Scotia, a co-operatively owned craft store, where she markets her wares.
I have known Delia for almost 20 years. Her enthusiasm for her work has
been so encouraging for many other spinners, and so I asked her if she
would be interested in sharing her skills through the production of a
training video. The result of which, during the summer of 1998, I traveled
down to Nova Scotia and spent a
week filming her work.

Working
with Wool, SPINNING, is a 2 hour video. It
briefly looks at the differences between the different wools and breeds of
sheep. It then follows through the process of washing, dyeing, drying,
picking, carding, and then finally spinning. The program is well laid out,
easily explained, simple to follow and should be of great help for anyone
starting out with this craft.
