Errr - I've been shopping! Couldn't live without these Indigo Hound wool combs any longer. They arrived last week from the USA, and really I don't know how I managed without them. They're so much better at preparing camel and llama wool than carders.
This is some llama being combed :-
and then pulled through my home-made milk bottle top diz (basically, a piece of plastic with a hole in it)
To make a perfectly clean (well, almost) length of fibre ready for spinning.
It may not be dramatically faster than using carders, but it's much more satisfying, and the result is so much more professional-looking. Worth every penny!
