Excellent

“Sarah does a wonderful job of going through all of the features of an espinner and also spinning techniques of different fiber preps!” - Lynne Miller

Just what I needed

“Great overview and tips! I"m an experienced treadle wheel spinner, new to E-spinning; solved some of the problems I was having with plying and making slubs. Slow enough to see everything and . . . see the back/far hand with long draw (often not visible on YouTube demos).” - Karen Cooper

Helpful introduction

“I learned more than I expected to from this video. There's more than just "power spinning" but plenty of helpful ideas about spinning and plying in general.” - Aline Faben
