I have been driveing myselfe nuts trying to figure out how this think works! The sites that everyone gave me were great but most of it was writen and the words just made no sence to me! In my search I found a post where someone mentioned seeing a spinning show on knitty gritty so I went lookin for it.

there is a video that shows the whole thing working, I am sure there are diferent ways to do it but at least now i know how the spindle itselfe works! I am sooo excited now, cant wait to get started.

i'm still loving it :) i got waylaid by a spot of dyeing over the weekend, but once i've finished spinning up the dyed batch of fibre i'm going to take the final step and see how it crochets up.

i'm recording my progress in mind-numbing detail on my blog (http://stitch.hellooperator.net).
