Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
Instead of approaching spinning with the end result in mind and forcing a fleece to meet that goal, e.g., a sport-weight sock yarn, Listen to the Wool shows spinners how to work with a fleece to find what type of yarn it is best suited to become. By investigating wool preparation from a technical, cognitive, sensory, and spiritual perspective, the reader will be able to confidently make decisions to create a wool’s best yarn, allowing it to shine. The book will encourage readers to “do” the “don’ts,” challenge their preconceptions, embrace their mistakes, and enjoy the full journey of fleece to yarn.
I’ve spent decades exploring the idiosyncratic qualities of a multitude of fleeces, along with different tools and techniques. I know very well the joy of pulling a lock out of a newly-shorn fleece and gauging its length, crimp, color, and texture—wondering which adventure it will lead me on. Josefin’s contributions to our community encourage us to open our hearts and our hands to the incomparable pleasures offered by every woolly sheep, who annually shares its bounty with us and bounces back into the field, already growing the fleece that will carry subtle traces of the year to come into our future crafting quests.
I encourage you to open this book and your mind and let Josefin guide you on this incomparable voyage.
