I’ve never seen it done like that, and I’ve always had problems getting my Kromski Sonata bobbins to fill up evenly. Now I want to see if I can get that to work on my wheel. Thanks for the tips!
Amazing!! I've had questions about the hooks on flyers and why some wheels have them both on one side and some wheels have them opposing sides for most of my spinning life. I always had a suspicion it was more than just to "balance", tho that is a reason too. THANK YOU!!!!!!!💕💕💕
I was about to move the hook when I saw on my Ashford that the reason they are positioned that way on the flyer is that the hole on the side of the oriface (spindle) would not have lined up! They have a hole on each side directly across from each other so when threading the yarn from the bobbin to the oriface that hole is set up for the flyer arm. Unlike the matchless where you can just move from side to side (I'm guessing it's entrance must be centered on top and serve both sides equally).

The best fiber informative videos were created in 2015 No kidding.
Thank you for these tips on managing the bobbin

I always rewind my bobbins onto a storage bobbin to even out the yarn distribution as well as the twist.
Great tutor explains clearly and a fun video.
best explanation I've seen and a great justification! Thanks!
You are welcome. :-)
I have an very old spinning wheel and the hooks are missing. Is there a specific hook needed or can I use any small cup hooks???
Thank you, I wondered about this🥰
Im a new in spinning and this is a great information. thank you!
Lucia I am a new spinning and I cannot get my yarn to spinning around my bonnet
When you're going back the other way do you zigzag back the opposite way or jump right back to the beginning? Great video, thanks!
Zigzag the opposite way, as well. :-)
