Andean PlyingUpdated 6 months ago
This is a unique plying method that allows you to ply a single strand of yarn back onto itself, creating a two-ply yarn without needing multiple bobbins. Named after traditional Andean spinning techniques, this method involves wrapping the yarn around your hand in a specific way so you can pull it from both ends and ply it as a loop.
Pro Tip: Andean plying is great when you only have a small amount of yarn left or want to avoid breaking out another bobbin. Just be careful with your hand wrap—it can get a bit tangled if not done carefully!
