Description
Although this Bluefaced Leister (BFL) in the form of combed top is better suited to worsted-style drafting, this article talks about spinning it point-of-contact woolen for a head-warming hat. This article covers creating faux-logs, spinning long draw, and finishing the yarn (specifically for the Nicolas Hat in this same issue).
