To ask me a question
How your spinning wheel works. Understanding scotch tension and whorl sizes.
This video includes some great tips for how to use your spinning wheel to create the yarn you want! Understanding how to adjust your scotch tension and your whorls (ratios) instead of adjusting your treadling speed. The idea with handspinning is to let the wheel work for you while you relax!
Beginning handspinners this video will teach you valuable info about how your spinning wheel works. Long time spinners this may be just the refresher you need.
