We considered spinning the wool but abandoned the idea as the quality of the
threads used in the original Bayeux Tapestry can be well matched to yarn that we
could purchase - Yorkshire still has a vibrant wool spinning industry.
We experimented with a number of yarns, testing the ideal
number of plys for the various components of laid
work.
Right - One of the experimental sessions at Barley Hall to investigate
the feasibility and develop techniques.
