When the drum is completely full of wool, I take it off. It holds about 50-60 grams at a time. I twist the wool into a sort of knot so that I can store it easily.
Knots of wool in a bagIn the end, I have a big bag full, with 17 skeins of wool, totaling over 900 grams. That should be enough for a sweater. I put a nicely scented piece of soap in the bag with the wool to keep the moths away.
Wol, ready to be spunWhen I want to spin the wool again, I first unroll the skein of wool and fluff it up again.
Zigzag strips of carded woolWhen the wool is a bit fluffier, I pull zigzag strips from it. When pulling the strips, you need to stop just before reaching the end, so the strips form a cohesive whole.

You now have a nice long strip of wool that is easy to spin.
