A short demonstration of how to hand spin laceweight silk yarn from a mulberry silk brick. To spin a fine thread, set your spinning wheel to the highest ratio available. On my Kromski wheel, this is 14:1. Turn the bobbin around and use the smallest whorl of your bobbin. Loosen the tension on the flyer, to give yourself time to draft the fibre.
