I guess you've been really busy at work - hope everything is going well for you xDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16121342298237870670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795812784322982565.post-76116636119803481212011-02-09T22:03:00.721+00:002011-02-09T22:03:00.721+00:00Oh, this is a lovely post, and really inspires me ...Oh, this is a lovely post, and really inspires me to get on with my blog a bit more than I have been doing recently. It also really makes me impatient to get my mitts on my wheel. There are some useful tips there, and I'm sure when I get my wheel, they will make even more sense and be really practical. <br /><br />For what its worth, I've just finished spindling some singles, which I've decided to leave as single ply, although I think it is still a little too twisty, but I shall have to see. :)Ashleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10688791513734509395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795812784322982565.post-30263883379618298992011-02-09T20:28:20.821+00:002011-02-09T20:28:20.821+00:00Thank you Jacqui.

I'm more than happy to let people have a go on my wheel at public events and share tips.<br /><br />I posted the picture of my first spinning with you and Claire in mind - so you can see the journey I have been on. You can both do it, I have faith in you :)Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16121342298237870670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795812784322982565.post-57771764936992664672011-02-09T20:20:36.160+00:002011-02-09T20:20:36.160+00:00Oh Dawn - that was such a good post.

I was very heartened to see your first skein and to compare it to your wonderful plied yarn at the beginning.

If you wrap a bit of masking tape around your finger and run it gently across the spun wool on the bobbin the loose end will stick to the tape and you can then re-thread it through the orifice with your threading hook.<br />Hope I've explained that okay xDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16121342298237870670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795812784322982565.post-75591855760124984302011-02-09T19:50:38.938+00:002011-02-09T19:50:38.938+00:00Thank you for this, most timely!
