A blog about knitting, nursing school, and adjusting to life in the South.
Catching up on podcasts (I seem to be a week behind at the moment) and came to the part about spinning on your drop spindle. There is nothing wrong with pre-drafting to the thickness you want. You are not going to see a drafting triangle, because you are not drafting while you spin. Have you run across videos for the park and draft method? Trying to draft while spinning as a new spinner is like trying to run before you learn to walk. I am about to head out for the night but you can message me on Plurk or Rav if you want more info
