Explore silk--an alluring and exotic fiber for spinners! The Practical Spinner's Guide: Silk teaches spinners how to create smooth lustrous yarns from a gorgeous but tricky and sometimes intimidating fiber in this second installment in a series of fiber specific books. Author Sara Lamb discusses the various forms in which silk is available--combed top, bricks, noils, hankies, and bells--and how best to card, prep, and spin them, specifically touching on trouble spots such as drafting and adding twist. She also covers finishing yarns--cleaning and degumming, setting twist, and plying--and even touches on what dye processes are best for adding color, as well as how to blend silk into other spinning fibers. Sara includes brief discussions on spinning for both knitting and weaving, the properties of woven and knitted fabric, and what the spinner needs to take into account while creating yarn for a subsequent project.

Excerpt from How to Use Florence Knitting Silk The lining is done by picking up on three needles the 80 loops formed by casting on in the beginning, and knitting as stitches in plain rounds until you have a tubular web of length to cover and form a lining to the fancy work in wrist. The first five rounds of the mitten are turned in and counted as part of the lining, the sixth forming the fancy notched edge of wrist (see engraving). Having the proper length for lining the wrist, cast off very loosely a portion of the stitches, leaving enough with which to knit a flat web of width and length enough to a little more than cover and form a lining to the fancy work in back of the mitten. This should be knit in rows like the heel of a stocking. When the proper length is obtained cast off very loosely, and finish the mitten by sewing in such a manner as will not interfere with its elasticity at the wrist. If the lining is omitted, the first five rounds of the mitten will be turned under and sewed down for a hem. This makes a neat and strong border; but a better method, where a mitten is not lined, is to form a hem at the commencement, as described in Rule C. We advise every lady, however, to line her mittens, as she will be amply repaid for the extra time and expense in so doing. The thumb in this mitten is commenced in the 76th round. The mittens must be knit as "rights and lefts." The central stitch (that is the loth) in the fancy design in back is the same as the first stitch of the pattern in wrist. If this adjustment be observed, the harmony of the two designs will be perfect. Eighty stitches at wrist make a mitten of size No. 6 1/2 to No.7, with medium knitting. Rule C. Directions For Knitting A Hem. Very attractive borders for mittens or stockings are easily made by casting on the stitches loosely and knitting several rounds plain, followed by one round of openwork knit thus: n, o, repeat. Follow the round of open-work with a number of rounds of plain knitting equal to that which preceded it. In the next round, turn the edge of work up inside, and pick up and knit with each stitch on the needles one loop from the edge where your work was commenced, thus forming a perfect hem. There will always be exactly the same number of loops on the edge of the work as there are stitches on the needles, if the casting on has been properly done. These hems may be of any desired width. In our rules for mittens we have used some narrow and some wide borders. The knitted hem is recommended for beginning stockings, either for ladies or children. It forms a neat, strong border, precisely like that seen in expensive, "full-fashioned," French hosiery, and looks much better than the ancient method of ribbing.
