Yarn Weaving

Does Anybody Spin Their Own Yarn / Thread or Make Cloth on a Loom?

I’m involved in historical reenactment and am writing an article about handicrafts. I was hoping that there might be some people here who have experience making cloth straight from raw cotton, wool, flax, etc. I’d really like to know about how long it has taken to spin the yarn and then weave it into cloth. Learning an approximate of how many hours of spinning and then weaving produced how much cloth would help me a great deal.

micki has given you a very detailed answer. You can't get any useful information on how long something takes. THat is not the point. You do it because you have to, or because you get pleasure from it. How long it takes doesn't really come into the picture.

I've worked on a team of 4 people, who took a fleece right off the sheep, spun a 2-ply yarn, and wove a shawl in about 5 hours. We spun and wove an adult sweater in about 13 hours (the record is less than 5 hours). But that is a lot of work, so normally we break it up into smaller time periods over several days. Again, how long something takes is not really considered.
