Making Yarn Samples with the Women - Part 5 - The Final Product

After all the steps, now it is time to view the final product. After the yarn is dried, it is spun into a ball or cone shape.

If it is hand spun, it will be a ball

If the yarn is spun using the little machine, then they are in cone shapes. This allows for easier tagging of
the yarns. The tag will provide information of the product and the project.

The women then use a balance to make sure that the yarn weighs exactly 50gms

And the final products and colour samples (this is not the entire colour set that the women can produce)

All the women working together as a team to make these samples
