Thank you so much for this. I've only recently started spinning, and my spindle is a little on the heavy side, so I've been having issues dealing with thin singles during plying. It occurred to me to think about chain ply on the fly to help with that, so I looked it up and here you are! Also, LOVE your plied hair! Actually paused for a minute to go try it on my own! :D
Your ply-on-the-fly demo here convinced me I can do this. I now have an Akerworks drop spindle with arms and mastering the techniques. Thank you for sharing this. I am looking forward to demonstrating this in the summer at farmers markets.
Thank you for this. I did my first chain ply on my wheel but keep running the spin too high as I was all fingers and thumbs. I'm going to try this with the turkish and hopefully the slower ply will help my hands to get the method.
This was a great episode and demonstration of ply on the fly. I’ve tried this long ago with a spindle somewhat successfully, before I purchased a wheel, but this has motivated me to give it another go. Thanks so much for your videos!
I have ordered the Akerworks lazy Kate at your recommendation. Was getting ready to order a drop spindle and had been looking at the "lotus" design (because it's pretty). You have convinced me that this design is more functional and that's what I am really needing as a new drop spinner. I like having another option other than my Kromski Minstrel. Thanks, Vivian Ann on the side of the mountain in northeast Tennessee
Another interesting episode...I'm just learning to spindle spin after 40 or so years of wheel spinning, but will definitely try this plying method when I gain more experience and confidence. I had to watch more than once as I kept getting distracted by the gorgeous sweater (jumper) you're wearing, and also by how well Dexter color coordinates with it! Such a handsome boy😗
What kind of drop spindle is that. It looks very interesting. I learned to spin on a homemade drop spindle with angora fiber. I don't have the money right now to get a nice wheel (plus I can't decide what one to get) though I did have a dodec wheel for a while. I have chain plied many times but I love the spokes on your spindle for parking your loop. Wonderful video. Thank you

The best instruction I could find!! Thank you. The part with the crochet hook really brought the concept home
Thank you for this series of videos. I am fairly new to spinning and I have learnt loads of new techniques.

Ply on the Fly is very interesting. Thank you for adding that to this video.

Interesting plying. Can spindle but never tried chain ply. May try this some day. Thanks Becks
This sounds very interesting, thank you
Thanks so much for the shoutout! It was lovely to see how well you showed the technique!

Katie B. It's an Akerworks spindle. They make amazing spinny things.
Enjoyed this episode. Going to give chain plying a go with my drop spindle, hopefully mine will turn out as yours did. :)
I'm in love with the bias knit shawl!!! What is the pattern?
Thank you - it’s the Nahant by Rachel Henry and it’s a free pattern from Knitty.com
