Two friends, Debs & Claire wanted to know how you get going with spindles, so I quickly did this tutorial for them.
Forgive the camera work, my son isn't used to the camera and neither of us are used to doing videos :D
I also forgot to say that if the fluff gets in the way too much, you may want to consider using a wrist distaff to store the fluff on.
@claireejtoo If you pull one end of the braid, it should unravel. Just pull of a small chunk the size I was holding at the start of the vid - you can see it grows as you draft it.
