Not sure of this is the bet way, but I wound up about 150 yards onto my bobbin and practiced on that. I also watched the knitgirllls youtube about 10000 times!

I like this technique: Sarah Anderson - Navajo Plying

Watch Knitabulls tutorial.... The best one out there. I watched it 4-5 times while I learned!!! It was awesome!

Awesome! Thank you everyone! I'll take a look at all of them tonight. I'm spinning some the Hobbledehoy that I picked up at MDSW and want to get as much yardage as I can out of the three mini-batts.

I practised with some generic acrylic yarn for the actions first so my fingers knew what to do before the real thing.

I watched a lot of you tube vids
