In this video, we will explore Awassi wool. This is an ancient breed dating back as far as historic Mesopotamia. I purchased several batts from Handmade Palestine to demonstrate in this video. Let's learn about traditional Palestinian spinning techniques, look at historic textile practices, and spend time with Lisa Heineman, founder of The Palestinian Wool Project. Together we talk about shepherds, land, culture, and the deep human connection carried in this fiber.

You’ll see how this wool drafts, how it behaves on an e‑spinner, what it looks like when felted, and what kinds of projects it works great in. If you’re curious about felting, weaving, rug making, or simply want to understand the story behind this wool, this video will get you ready to try!

A companion felting video for the Palestinian Wool Project is also available from Lalabug Designs. If you want to see how Awassi wool performs in wet felting, both the short and long versions are linked below.

A big Fiber Friend, "Thank you!" to Lisa for sharing her knowledge, experience with Handmade Palestine, and her ongoing work to connect fiber artists with Palestinian makers.

Happy spinning
