When I bought a new belt & brake band for the Louet 10,I put them on a few months ago & haven`t spun on it since.One thing was I forgot how to tighten & loosen the tension,can you believe that?! I couldn`t get it to spin right. My dh clued me in on how after I asked for a screwdriver.He said ,you don`t need a screwdriver...& proceded to turn the knob shown here.I`m making a note of it as who knows when my mind will have lost it again.I`m still so grateful for Becky`s & Kate`s help when I had questions about spinning.
When I go to the fiber festivals & watch the people spin,I always looked at their faces too,so carefree,chatting while sitting back in their chairs seemingly unmindful of what they were doing,it all looked so perfect.When I sit down,however,I`m bent forward,clutching the fiber with a death grip like it is going to crumble or disappear & get lost somewhere.So today,armed with Hershey kisses & coffee,I settled back to get comfortable with spinning.I think it looks pretty good.I LOVE the colors.I bought this fiber from Phylleri Ball some time ago.I can`t wait to spin these colors Becky sent me,natural colors are ME.
