One of my favourite spinning/yarn facts.
Almost all of your ancestors could spin.
There was a tiny fragment of Neanderthal yarn/twine found in France. It's made from the bast from tree bark......
It's at least 40,000 years old....
It's bloody three ply lace weight yarn. I doubt ANY modern spinner could pull that off, even with all our gadgets and knowledge.
