I only have 3 bobbins, so I have to go to the next step right away. But there is no reason I couldn't ply it to full, make my skein, then ply another bobbin worth. <br /><br />Caraoak haven alpacashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02603968424369860667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7907711086772707520.post-34702319993505671772011-11-27T09:39:52.705-05:002011-11-27T09:39:52.705-05:00What a great idea to make the hash marks on my swi...What a great idea to make the hash marks on my swift. Never thought of that.<br />I meant to comment on your plying post. What I do is fill both single bobbins (ending up with 2 bobbins that are approx 100g), then ply onto a 3rd bobbin, cutting the singles off when I fill the plied bobbin. If I don't have a 4th empty bobbin to continue on, I make the one plied skein right away to empty the plying bobbin so that I can ply the second 100g.Norma from Misty Haven Alpacashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528304751819069504noreply@blogger.com
