WIP Wednesday – Time To Ply

I’ve been spending my quiet moments spinning away on my Tibetan spindle (and might have acquired two more support spindles) and have reached the point of plying.

This dealgan was a purchase from several years ago and is made by Fox Mountain Spindles. It is a traditional Scottish whorl-less spindle that has been used historically for both spinning and plying. I figured that this would be the PERFECT spindle for doing my current project. I love the rhythm and speed of plying and it certainly flys on the spindle. It certainly helps when you love the fibre tools you’re using also 😉

Do you use a dealgan? If so, do you spin with it, ply with it, or both?
