First - I love the shirt! Second, it’s really awesome and important to see how folks with different types of mobility issues can still make fiber arts work for them! Thank you for sharing!

Lol, thanks, they are from our local corner store😉. And yes,I hope maybe I can help someone else.

Congratulations 🎉🎉. You mastered it!! Patience and practice. I’m not there yet, but you’ve inspired me to keep at it.

I feel you are doing a great job, and showing how to get going for beginners. Thank you for sharing

Thank you l!

So glad I found your channel! I bought my first support spindle 2 weeks ago and am gobbling up information. Thanks for sharing what you have learned. I really appreciate that you shared that you are a stroke survivor. My son had a massive stroke at age 33. 16 months later he has minimal use of his right hand but it is still improving.

Welcome! I'm glad You found the channel too! I'm sorry to hear about your son. Tell him not to give up and keep trying and it's okay to do things differently, reach out if you have any questions, I'd be happy to help!

Thank you! I plan on telling him about you. He has worked really hard. His affected hand is his dominant hand but he continues to progress. His biggest hurdle is losing his ability to communicate easily due to aphasia and apraxia of speech. He gets very frustrated and sad. That said he hasn’t stepped back from living life and I am so proud of him. Anyway- you are an encouragement to me ❤.

That made so much sense. I'm okay on wheel, drop spindles, but the support spindle is kind of a mystery. Great overhead shot - thanks!

I got precisely one with a lap bowl. And I just can't get another until I get this one going. It came with a lot of wool that is loose and fluffy (much different than I'm used to!) so I'll use that and see how it goes. Whew!@@kingdomfleeceandfiberworks5897

I loved this video Liz, and it was so nice of you to share it! You are doing great, but I think I'll stick with my Turkish spindles! Lol

​@@kingdomfleeceandfiberworks5897I love the cops a Turkish spindle makes!

You do wonderfully at spinning. I'm going to try a drop spindle, and I have one hand that shakes badly. I hope I have as much success as you.

Thank you. Just be patient with yourself and if you need to switch hands and see if that works too. Try and only do a few minutes at the time so you don't stress yourself out! If you keep trying different things, eventually you'll find something that works, Good luck!

That was very good! Thank you - now I'm wondering if I still have my support spindle packed away somewhere ❤

You'll have to dig it out. It really is nice to take it on the go.
