The fiber can be dyed before or after it is spun.

I believe they dye it first and then spin it.  At least that is what I got
when I purchased my roving [not sure how it is spelt].

Do people dye the fiber before or after spinning it?

Now I understand why people way back in the day had so few clothes; it takes
a lot of work to go from plant or animal to finished piece. Lol

hi Cindy,
I also enjoyed the chat.  I remember taking a class in college where we
cleaned, boiled, dyed and spun lamb's wool. Once Diane described the drop
spindle I realized that this was what I had used. I remember the wool was
full of sticks and leaves, and even after cleaning, still had a good bit of
lanolin in the wool. I never did get the hang of spinning the wool, but
Diane's description gave me a much better understanding if I were ever to
spin again. It does sound like something I would enjoy doing, however I
don't need another hobby right now.


Have a great day!!
Cathy F
