00:00I work remotely, so four days a week I'm at home on the computer all day, so it's
00:06really nice to come out and actually meet some other humans and have a shared
00:10hobby together.
00:12My auntie was telling me about her old spinning wheel that she had in a shed, it was actually my
00:16uncle's shed, and we went to go and then I found this group and came along and they taught me.
00:25I'm spinning sliver on my little nano.
00:29A spinner.
00:31What's the difference between what you're doing and the wooden pedal ones the others are using?
00:36Nothing.
00:37It's exactly the same, only I don't have to pedal.
00:41I'll be making a jacket, a sleeveless jacket out of this piece.
00:45This is a four sharp loom I'm using, and I've been using this loom for about 30 years now, so
00:55it knows me.
00:57It knows me, this loom.
00:59I think I've always been someone who's had grainy hobbies, as awful as that is to say, but I think
01:06for me it's more about slow fashion.
01:08So it's being able to have something that I know was made sustainably, know that it's going to last, it's
01:16not going to fall apart after a couple of washes.
01:18So it's really about being part of that process of making your wardrobe.
01:22These young people that are coming into the group are so keen and they've got new ideas and that's what
01:32we need.
01:32It's really good.
