hand-spun
Twisted by fingers
Hand-spun describes yarn or thread that has been spun by hand rather than by machine, typically using a spindle or spinning wheel.
The term extends to fabrics woven from such yarn: hand-spun wool, hand-spun silk.
Hand-spun fibers tend to be slightly irregular, prized for their artisanal quality and texture.
