I always pick a video for the fam to learn something over dinner.....at the table. I think I'm gonna get some interest tonight.
Beautiful ☝️💜💫

This is stunning. I would love one!
Beautiful.
Very neat. I just watched a video on my cellphone about a tradition that’s 300 ? years old being built on equipment that also very traditional. That’s way neat!
This is incredible, love so much!!!!!!!
These are beautiful...where can i get them?
How long are your strands before you start twisting? There must be a lot of shrinkage as they twist. Absolutely beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful. I don't ride, but I would love a rope like that... and I'll bet that they are STRONG!!
Beautiful! As a hand spinner, I wonder how you are balancing the twist,especially when you plied all those strands together. Very interesting!
The plying I get, I was taught to ply the opposite direction than the twist to balance it, but an E-spindle/E-wheel intimidates me so much
The word Mecate cames from the Mexica or Nahuatl "Mecatl".

@@grungerobotnow I mis-read. That's actually hilarious.
Why are people so afraid to just say fuck Joe Biden? It's middle school behavior. If it's some sort of secret code, it fails spectacularly.
