I'm a beginner weaver, and accidently happened upon you. What wonderfully helpful information!! Thank you!

@JenniferMiller-v3d 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for taking the time to make this video! I was very intimidated by the washing process. This seems very manageable. I am coming to your retreat next April and I am so excited!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.❤

This was the best! As soon as i saw you I knew that I would be learning a lot from someone who really knows what she is doing :) Thank you.

Thank you, really informative and PRACTICAL!!

@manicspinner1959 5 лет назад

This is awesome; thank you for comparing the different fibers. TOTALLY jealous of your multi-sink operation. I've got a single kitchen sink and one utility sink in the basement. Hadn't heard about eccoscour; bought a bottle to check it out.

The parrot has lots to say about her wool! LOL Great video! Thanks for Sharing Chris and Teresa. Loved it

@lorisewsstuff1607 3 года назад

The parrot is hilarious. Rinse, rinse, rinse, "Waahoo," rinse, rinse, rinse, "Waahoo!" We all need a cheerleader like that.

@juliereilly6308 2 года назад

I’d definitely like to see how you’skirt’ the wool. Thank you x

You helped me a lot. Thank you. I'm from another country so I can't visit your resort, but if I could - I would.

@georgestermaier8553 Год назад

thanks for all the great info. is there an overview of different sheep, their wool, and which can be used for what? I am kind of overwhelmed by all the different sheep put there and look for a start....

@EweTube Год назад

Greetings!!! Thats a great question! It is overwhelming. As per where to start depends on what you want to do with the wool in the end? Are you a felter, weaver, knitter etc etc. This Saturday on this weeks Ewetube (209), we do a quick tutorial on how to tell the difference in fleeces just by looking at them in the grease…😊

@SeekerofEndurance Месяц назад

I love your name!!😂

@lindaferguson593 9 месяцев назад

Could you take the fleece apart into doable sizes to card out vm and bm first? Then wash those fibers? How can you separate lanolin from wool, easily, in order to keep lanolin? Thank you so much!!

@nurturewithartnature619 3 года назад

Can you spin dry in a front loader washing machine or just top loader?

@sarahpugh7362 5 лет назад

Couldn’t get the name of the scouring soap. I live in UK. Can you tell me what it is you use? Thanks. Great video, so relaxed.

Ecoscour

@rebeccadees2300 2 года назад

What size laundry bag ?

@clearlysewcrazy2727 3 года назад

Do you have a water softener? If not, what type of water do you have? I have a lot of iron in my water and have a hard time getting fleeces clean.

@kimloewen8544 Год назад

Great video!! What are your levers at the bottom of you sinks?

@EweTube Год назад

They open and close the drains. So I don’t have to reach into the hot water . Thanks so much!! Blessings!!!

@kimloewen8544 Год назад

@@EweTube Thank you! That is a great idea.

@sepp5762 2 года назад

Where did you get the large potato masher, it's great.

@chrisarmbrust1228 2 года назад

We got it at a restaurant supply store. It’s stainless steel. Works amazing. We had a cheaper wooden handle one before the all stainless one and the wood did not last long.

@pamelaevenson1453 4 года назад

Will you have EccoScour for sale at the Open House?

@EweTube 4 года назад

Yes

@LS-mg3ig 5 лет назад

I wish all your RU-vid videos were on FB as well! :)

@laurabodine1227 2 года назад

Can I use Dawn dish liquid instead of the Eccoscour? I live in Ecuador and don't think I can find that here.

@EweTube 2 года назад

Good morning Laura! Yes you can. You will have a lot more rinsing and will need to scour a few times. It should do an ok job for you. Use very hot water. You may need to boil water to get it hot enough.

@judithtaylor6916 2 года назад

Can you still purchase Eccoscour as I read they had closed down permanently?

@EweTube 2 года назад

Yes you can. Organic Dyes bought them out years ago.

@PifsGifts 2 года назад

So you can put it in the dryer? How long? What temp? Thank you.

@EweTube 2 года назад

No do not put in dryer. Lay out flat to dry, can put a fan blowing on it to dry it quicker. You can also spin out the excess water in the washer prior to laying out to dry. ☺️

@PifsGifts 2 года назад

@@EweTube Thank you! I’m new to this. I crochet and felt and several days ago I was gifted and entire sheep’s fleece! I’ve already done a section of it and was intrigued by the bag idea and washing machine to ring it out. Thank you again!!!
