Is your brush something that came with the blending board?

@@barbaragood1929 hi Barbara, the stubby looking brush with the black bristles indeed did come with the blending board. The hand card that I use to smooth out the lumps did not.

Hi, thankyou for sharing this video podcast. Love the beach and shells. The blended yarn looks like the ocean. Can't wait to see what you're going to weave with it. Happy Spinning Take care and stay safe Jen xx ( I'm in the UK).

This is a wonderful video. It isn't like any other video I have seen using a blending board. I really appreciate your voiceover explaining why you were using specific types of wool/silk to create different textures. It was very helpful to see the different application and removal techniques you use to get a specific effect in the final product. I am just starting on my fiber/spinning/weaving journey. As an artist utilizing paint and pencils to create, I found this very helpful. I find the idea of painting/drawing with the texture of fiber very interesting. I can't wait to get started on my new blending board etc. Do you have any reccomendations for books or other resources for a beginner? Thank you for sharing your passion and your creative spirit and your lovely art. 🥰

You are most welcome. Thank you for you input into what you like about the video. While most info out there for making textural art yarn involves drumcarders, the principles a are somewhat the same. Lexi Boeger aka Pluckyfluff published an awesome book in the 2000s so I am not sure if it is still in print. I believe she has moved on from fiber art, but her info is great if you can find the book. Neauveau Fiber Art and Jazz Turtle both have good online info.
