Dressing a Naked Distaff

As requested, here's how to dress a distaff with wool -the distaff is not just for flax! Plus how to use a distaff in everyday life. Distaves are not just for the Medievalist!!! See Distaff technology brought into the Modern Age. I've made a little video where I am actually spinning on the Oseberg Hand Distaff here: https://flic.kr/p/qXRfAa (not on YouTube). More discussion on the hand distaff in my blog here: http://missingspindle.blogspot.com. Use of wool batts made of drum-carded Romney fleece (or commercially carded wool/wool blends). Use of the waist distaff. Many thanks to all the wonderful folks at TammySwales.com for creating this video. And many thanks also to Zoe Swales, who appeared in 'walking the dog'.
