Ply on the fly is a technique to spin a yarn on a spindle and ply alternately. You spin a bit, secure the end of the single, and chain-ply the part you just spun. I have never practised it, but it is a smart way to finish a yarn without having the trouble of unwinding the spindle in between. I have seen a few videos on this technique, but only on drop spindles. So today I made a search on plying on the fly on a supported spindle. And I found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jG-Qd6A0YNM\">Ioana&#8217;s<\/a> video. She has a good technique and explains it very well.<\/p>\n<p>The basics are: you spin clockwise and wind onto the temporary cop and butterfly the single onto your fiber hand, just as you would normally do. For plying, you pick up a loop from the bottom of the shaft and chain-ply counter-clockwise. When almost all the butterflied single is plied, you secure the loop at the bottom again and go back to spinning.<\/p>\n<p>I wanted to make my own video, soI went to the allotment with my garden chair\/camera stand and started spinning! I put in explaining in text and slow motion sections to show the technique as clearly as possible. However, there are many steps in a short segment of time and you might want to watch it more than once to get the technique. Also, look at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jG-Qd6A0YNM&amp;t=1s\">Ioana&#8217;s<\/a> video for additional explanation of the method.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_481\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-481\" style=\"width: 592px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"481\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/new-video-ply-on-the-fly-on-a-supported-spindle\/pof\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Pof.jpg?fit=592%2C411&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"592,411\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Pof\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Pof.jpg?fit=525%2C364&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-481 size-full\" title=\"Close-up of a person chain-plying on a supported spindle\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Pof.jpg?resize=525%2C364&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Close-up of a person chain-plying on a supported spindle\" width=\"525\" height=\"364\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Pof.jpg?w=592&amp;ssl=1 592w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Pof.jpg?resize=300%2C208&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-481\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ply on the fly on a supported spindle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The spindle is from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespindleshop.net\">Malcolm Fielding<\/a>, bowl is an egg bowl from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmundner.at\/de\">Gmundner Keramik<\/a> and fiber is hand-combed from the Swedish finewool sheep Engla at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kulturlandskaparna.se\">\u00d6verj\u00e4rva g\u00e5rd<\/a>.
