I''m very impressed with this video. About 30 years ago, we raised sheep for a few years, and I have a bag of carded roving that I've carted around with me ever since.I bought a Lendrum double treadle about 20 years ago....and then life got in the way! Am semi-retired now and have been trying to figure out what to do. This is the most helpful video I've found. I can be a bit impatient, want to master whatever I'm doing NOW, and appreciate her encouragement to scrap the urgency, practice good posture, practice treadling...

It’s extremely difficult to explain how to spin, but this is one of the best (if not the best) tutorials I have watched.

What a compliment! Thank you ❤

I am so glad you addressed posture and leg position. Thank you for the great tutorial.

Hello Joe, You are a wonderful teacher. I have watched so many videos and many are helpful but sort of only did a quick pass with regard to importance of treading. Thinking a lot about my accidents, tangles, bag full of mistakes, it came to me that I needed instruction and practice with treadling. Your explanation and demonstration are kind and clear. I am thankful and look forward to learning more from you. God bless the work of your hands

Thank you for such a kind comment! And you are not alone, we have all been there with a bag full of mistakes while we were learning 😊

This is the PERFECT video for me. I took the leap this week and my new Lendreum DT will be arriving next week. Thank you for making this

[@FibreFlowJo]

The Lendrum is a fantastic wheel. So excited for you!

Best tutorial for drafting that I have seen👍🏻

[@constancelee686]

Very well done: demo was simple with great Camara angles, .no dog or cat distractions, good background scene & voice was calming. As a beginner my back always hurts when done after practicing spinning, thanks for posture lesson & drafting speeds to tension to consider .I over-twist a lot.. Now I know I'll get better at it. Thanks from Orlando, FL,

So helpful! Did the bobbin come with the wheel or do I have to buy it separately?

[@FibreFlowJo]

Hi! It usually comes with 3 bobbins if you buy it new 😊
