She has this touching kind of faith that I will manage.

Maybe you could rig it up on a hat so that you could ply as you walk? Maybe not.<BR/>I always navaho-ply so that I can work off of one ball of yarn when I spindle spin. It has its limitations for sure, but it keeos me from having to create a plying station such as yours...I can be lazy that way.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753222964942646578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19341251.post-86676810810967933542007-04-28T22:01:00.000-05:002007-04-28T22:01:00.000-05:00That plying station is pretty interesting.

They make a good collectable, too. They are less expensive than wheels and take up less room. I have 3 wheels but around 18 spindles.<BR/><BR/>Drop spindles have been around since neolithic man.
