Unfortunately, I have run out of this colour of cotton. It will be a few years before I will be able to get this cotton again while we wait for cinnamon coloured cotton to be planted and be made available for hand-spinners.
Be the first in your spinning group to have the hottest new cotton colour! Cinnamon is the newest colour in the Easy-to-Spin line of coloured cotton. This is its natural colour, no dyes are used.
The Easy-to-Spin line of cotton is one of the easiest for hand-spinners to work with. It has been prepared specifically for hand-spinners who have different spinning needs than the textile mills. This preparation does not need to be carded into punis, you can spin right from the sliver.
Cotton is a short fibre, so it spins a little differently than wool. You need to add a lot of twist to the yarn and use a woollen drafting technique. You can spin it using a worsted technique, such as short-forward draw, but since since the fibre is very short, each draw also needs to be very short.
If you really want your coloured cotton yarn to pop, after spinning, pop your coloured cotton yarn into a pot and boil it for about an hour. You will be pleasantly surprised at the colour shift.
