Mail from India: Ladakhi spindles, Yak Fiber and spinning stories (ft. @woolaroundtheworld )

Hello friends! I received the most exotic package yet: spinning tools (spindles and bowls) and fibers from India. More specifically: phangs from Ladakh, yak fiber, camel hair and himalayan sheep wool. They were send to me by @woolaroundtheworld, in the most generous way imaginable. Rica also had prepared some blends of the yak fiber and the sheep wool, so that is what we will spin in this video as a first foray into these tools and fibers. But more adventures with both the yak and the phangs will be in the future. For this yak fiber is so soft and warm I really want to knit myself a warm winter hat with it. What do you think?
