Rayne, thank you so much for your Ashford e-Spinner videos. I had owned a beautiful little LadyBug that just never ever worked for me. I could not get my feet, my hands, and my brain to all work together to make spinning on a traditional wheel work for me. I sold that wheel and am now seriously considering buying an Ashford 3 e-Spinner and your videos allow me to realize that I do not need to worry about my feet and/or speed on this "wheel".

Thank you for sharing your crafty journey with us, mistakes and all. It helps us all to see that we don't have to be perfect to be crafty. You have such a smooth and relaxing patter, which certainly matches your smooth and relaxing spinning!

I just posted in this in The Fiber Love Diary on FB, and would like to run it by you too. Help please! Question: I just bought my first e-spinner, an EEU 6, and I'm trying to figure out if my challenge is 'typical' for e-spinners, if it's my fault, or if it's just my low budget machine. My problem happens when my bobbin is a quarter full or more: Every time I stop my e-spinner to grab fiber, when I turn it back on the speed can shift quite drastically. I turn it off at one speed, but when I turn it back on to resume at the the speed I had it at it's often markedly slower or way faster than the speed I had stopped it at. As a result, I am finding myself constantly fiddling with speed control. It's like once the bobbin gets to a certain weight the e-spinner randomly selects a new speed and has a mind of it's own. It can be way faster one time I turn it back one, and the next it's way slower. Up until I load 2 or 3 ounces of fiber onto the spindle it spins just a dream from heaven, but every bit after that I'm nonstop battle to keep a consistent speed. What am I doing wrong to get these mystery speed changes? I'm an experienced spinner on manuals, and I fill my bobbins evenly. I am anxiously awaiting to hear about your experiences. Once there is some weight on the spindle, are these speed change 'normal', is it user error, or is it because I have a budget model machine (or it's faulty)?

I would really like to understand why you are doing that trick with your right hand -the untwist motion. It seems unnecessary. You let the twist into your fiber source. So if you’re untwisting, are you pulling less or more fibers from the v source???😮
