Thank you so much for this video! This way I could easily learn how to Navajo ply. *thumbs up* Great help!! :-)

Thank you SO much! I've been spinning on a drop spindle for 6 months. I tried your method of plying and within minutes had it down. I was able to ply 2 balls of yarn in one afternoon.

It was actually your punctuation, not your syntax, that was wrong!!

Very helpful indeed!!! Thanks so much for this video!!

Well, it's awesome!

Oh, boy. My syntax really sucks. Sorry, I was very tired. My Eng. Comp teachers would be apalled!

Thank you so much for your video. I have used a spindle for the past year, and am able to get 2-ply sock weight, so wan't to do something more. I have 4 lbs of merino top I'm going to dye the wool and want gradient colors to knit a EZ surprise jacket from it, and Navaho works perfectly! I'm so excited, and will be dyeing my wool next week from blue-violet turning to fushia in the center turning to a bright orange on the other end--I'm into Oriental colorways. Your video was a godsend.
I now have learned from Abby Franquemont to call this "chain plying" rather than stealing the misnomer of NAVAJO PLYING...

It looks like you are "crocheting" as you go. Is that right? Looks so wonderful, good work! Is this 2-ply or 3-ply? Thanks for sharing!

it is exactly like crocheting! and you get a 3-ply.
