I said I would go first and leave a comment about my favorite yarn to spin and my favorite wheel to spin it on, but I can decide! It's like trying to choose my favorite child! 😜

@DominicVLuftmensch Год назад

Haven't mastered any of mine, yet but I think it'll be a tie between my flax wheel and my walking wheel. 😁 My favorite to spin? My Navajo Churro wool. 😊 ps, watching this via someone else's channel, I'll be looking forward to seeing more videos soon! 😊 🤗 Eye of the Beholder

@emilyackertrutten268 2 года назад

This is one of the best explanations of how double drive works that I have ever seen/read/watched.

@catherinesieracki6952 4 года назад

Ok, I just found this channel today and I am going to say that it is by far the BEST instructional channel for spinning I have come across. I have only been spinning for a year and a half and already want to go fast on a double drive wheel. This makes the new “to me” drive system COMPLETELY understandable. Thank you for taking the time to teach. You are so easy to listen to and you know just what you are talking about. Much appreciation!!

@JillianEve 4 года назад

I'm so glad to hear that the video was helpful to you. Thank you so much for your kind comment. ☺ Happy spinning!

@fannymaresu3111 9 месяцев назад

Someone just gave me an old double drive as I was looking for a spinning wheel to start spinning for the very first time. Your video is gold! Thank you so much for making it !❤

@shawmmaker1 4 года назад

Thank you. When people are enthusiastic it tends to reduce clarity of explanation. You have managed to retain both enthusiasm and clarity and the result is very helpful. Best wishes from the UK!

@JillianEve 4 года назад

Thank you! I do my best! 😁

@jenmqkeeper 2 года назад

I just bought an antique double drive (flax wheel) at a thrift store today, so this is very helpful! Prior to this I have only used a drop spindle. My favorite yarns to spin are goat and llama fibers. I get it for free at work (I work at a zoo), and I love getting to spin fiber from animals I know personally!

@craycray375 Год назад

Thank you! Best antique spinning wheel tutorial I've been able to find!

@janethomasyager2175 4 года назад

At the risk of repeating what others have said, you are a gifted teacher. I just found your channel, have subscribed . I have searched everywhere for this information explained so clearly. Thank you so very much, Jane

I’m so grateful for this video! I’ve been so confused why I was not having any success and just found my drive band was installed incorrectly. Your videos are so clear and helpful!

@royburch681 4 года назад

I am a spinning virgin based in the UK and acquired a double drive just before lockdown (I didn’t even know it was a double drive). Your explanation here is invaluable I have watched it twice, you are a natural presenter. Spinning is like learning to drive - several skills to synchronise and I’m now on that journey. My second skein of just 2-plied wool (Jacob) is actually useable - but will be kept for posterity. Am now drying some fleece after scouring which is from a friends ram - my next adventure - yes I’ve watched your fleece videos too. Subscribed & fully engaged - go girl!!! ps- i’m not Roy Burch (that’s my dad) not sure how his name appeared here, I’m Wendy !

@JillianEve 4 года назад

Thank you Wendy! I'm so glad my video helped you to get started! I absolutely agree you should keep that first skein for posterity. Someday, you will take it out to see how far you have come! Happy spinning!

@noelleg3486 4 года назад

This is the double drive tutorial that needed to be out into the universe. Because it is a bit if a different animal, it often gets left out. Thank you so much!!

@JillianEve 4 года назад

It is a bit of a different animal! Lol! But I love double drive so much. I loved it even more when I understood it. 😉

@susancrosby4363 3 года назад

Just what I needed. I brought home a Matchless that was already set up in double drive. I’m an experienced spinner but new to DD. Was feeling a bit defeated by this very different method. I learned pretty much everything I needed to know to get spinning and making nice yarn. I found it tricky to finesse the take up when doing long draw. It seems like keeping a bit of tension on the yarn during take up keeps the yarn from developing pigtails. Thanks for posting this. 😍🥰❤️

@NekoRaiga Год назад

Just inherited(saved from the dumpster) an antique double drive wheel that originally belonged to my husband's great great grandmother and was just nearing frustrated that none of the tutorials I could find actually explained how to set up the drive band and how to change the bobbins. This one had to be reverse-unscrewed, and I've been too scared to use force to get it apart, so it was a relief when it just. Unscrewed easily when turned the right way, as you showed. So thank you! ❤️

@bobseldestagain 2 года назад

I've had a Columbine wheel sitting in a corner since I fell on it (tripped over the dog) and warped the frame. I decided I want to fix it and use it again...and since the original drive band is gone (who knows where, not me) I couldn't remember how to put a new band on it. Your very clear explanation of how a double-drive system is set up and works has given me the drive (pun intended) to make a new band and hope against hope I can get my Columbine back in use. (By the way, I learned to spin on a Turkish drop spindle from Louise Green of Greentree Ranch in 1973. I bought my first Columbine wheel in 1974, but in a period of prolonged insanity, sold it. The wheel I'm trying to fix was purchased in 2006 when I turned 59 1/2 and could pull off of my IRA without penalty. I've been using my spindle and an Ashford Kiwi for the last few years...I'm almost 76 and am determined to fix my Columbine!!)

@JillianEve 2 года назад

You can do it! 💜🧶😊

@TheGbab Год назад

You explained the ingenious and ancient subtleties of the double drive wheel beautifully. Imagine a modern spinning machine with variable speed bobbin and flyer servo motors and an optical system to watch the fibers twisting. It would need software, a computer, and months of programming. The old spinning wheel and a skilled operator however, produced consistent, even yarn hundreds of years ago. Today I inherited an old double drive spinning wheel which was made in Saskatchewan. It needs work and the whorl turns oposite from normal because it sits on right hand threads, but it's going to be a great wheel.

@mcreynoldsamy 27 дней назад

So glad both these drive videos are here, I saw the single drive video first and started to panic that my family heirloom spinning wheel was missing a part! But no, she's a double drive, phew! Now back to the "learning your own spinning wheel" video which i found first and led me to your channel :)

@charliedalton-twist4663 2 месяца назад

Thank you for helping us figure out what was wrong with the double drive wheel I had rescued. Yours was the first super clear explanation of what to look for that I found.

Thanks Jillian. A friend needs help with this so I'll be sharing. Your an excellent teacher.

@littlebits448 3 года назад

Wow!!! Where was this video when I first started 9 years ago?!? Thank you so much! I’m going to be starting all over with learning to spin. So excited I won’t have hands cramping up again...

@amandabeech403 Год назад

This is so helpful - thank you! I just bought a double drive Elizabeth wheel - I have only used scotch tension up to now, and double drive was a mystery, which you have totally uncovered! Great video!

@amphibiousone7972 9 месяцев назад

Fun story, I was shopping a thrift store, and I found a complete spinning wheel (less the band). This video was quite helpful in reminding me how to route the power band. Thank You 😊 Subscribed

@melanie21463 4 года назад

I want to make sure I leave a comment because I watch your videos from my ROKU tv and it doesn't give me the option to comment so while I'm on my phone... THANK YOU! This was the most helpful video about the double drive I have found. The tension instructions was the best I have seen! I have watched many of your videos and have learned something from each and every one of them. You are a wonderful teacher and I'm so glad I found you!

@JillianEve 4 года назад

Thank you so much Melanie! I'm glad you liked the video and found some helpful tips too. Happy spinning!

@ideamissing Год назад

I recently got a Schact Matchless and have been learning to use it. I emailed a teacher to show her what i had been producing and she suggested changing my ratio and increasing the speed of my bobbin. my immediate thought was that i knew what all of that meant because you had explained all of those things to me and more. Thank you for your tutorial videos. As i continue learning, I imagine i'll be spending a lot of time watching them :)

@brittanywinn3955 4 года назад

Thank you! Generally someone who knows about spinning wheels doesn't know much about youtube. But alas! Here you are! Melding the two!!!! Thank you, this is what I've been searching for. I'll be purusing your other videos for sure.

@JillianEve 4 года назад

Thank you! 🥰

@thatonegirlelaine 3 года назад

I've been spinning about 5/6 years. I've taken in person spinning classes, and watched hours and hours of videos and hands down yours is the best. You've explained the "why's" whereas a lot of teachers focus on the mechanics. Thanks so much!

@frederiquehinse3833 Год назад

You are such a good teacher! I have to prepare a demonstration and the spinning wheel doesn’t have the band… I feel ready to make it work with all your explanations. I really love the way you go into the science of it. It makes me fully understand… and your smile, love it! Merci!

@emilypollokoff4648 Год назад

@helenbrown8893 4 года назад

Hi. I was gifted a double drive spinning wheel from an op shop for Christmas. I’ve been searching for a video to show me how to set it up and yours is perfect as it explains EVERYTHING. I was having to go across multiple videos to gather all the information I required. Yours sums it all up in one. Thank you so much.

@JillianEve 4 года назад

@daniellebissonnette3304 Год назад

Your tutorials are excellent. I am looking into buying an antique spinning wheel, I believe it is a Cadorette CPW. Since I have never used a spinning wheel before, I needed to understand what is in front of me when I get there. Most of the wheels on the market are either decorative or genuine but have been purchased as a decorative antique, or came from a grandma's attic. This means that the person selling it will not be knowledgeable about spinning. This tutorial and the others you have on ratios, buying an antique and CPWs are very helpful. I am watching them over and over so that I will be able to buy a good wheel - or pass on the dust collector. Thank you so much Evie. ❤

@daniellebissonnette3304 Год назад

Just came home with the P. Cadorette wheel today. It is gorgeous, and even though it has not been used for spinning for a very long time, it is in great condition and it is very eager to get back to work. Beside adding oil to the friction points and putting in a new drive band, it works like a charm. For the drive band, I used a cotton/linen blend yarn from Yarn Bee; it is very strong. The instructions in this video were helpful, and I did the following to easily thread the drive band alone: a) I used a piece of rope to tie one of the spokes to prevent the wheel from turning b) I tied the first end of the drive band to one of the maiden, and which allowed me to keep enough tension on the band to help it stay in its grooves c) I ran my fingers over each groove as I threaded the band to ensure it is correctly placed. After a few tries, I nailed it. The part that I struggled most with, is that I could not get the practice yarn to wind on the bobbin after spinning it. Adjusting the tension did not seem to help, then by chance, I managed to get it t to wind once. That's when I knew the problem was me. It took many fails to finally figure out that this wheel wants me to slow down slightly when the treadle is at its highest point, and only then will it take up the yarn. So excited to be so close to spinning my very first yarn on my very first wheel! Thank you so much Evie for your helpful videos❤

@eileengreene2137 Год назад

Thank you for such an excellent tutorial on double drive wheels. I’ve always spun on Scotch tension wheels so was so confused as to how a double drive wheel winds the spun yarn onto the bobbin. You answered all my questions and made the lightbulb turn on!!!!!! THANK YOU!

This is the best video I have seen on tension and how the yarn winds on. I use a Schacht Matchless in DD for singles and a Ladybug in scotch tension for plying.

@JillianEve 4 года назад

Two of my dream wheels right there! I also like to use Scotch tension for plying. 😊 Happy spinning!

@abitofwhimsie 3 года назад

This is the most amazing explanation of how and why the wheels work that I have ever seen. I would gladly have paid 100$ for someone to teach me this. I have a scientifically driven mind and if I can’t quite understand why something works the way it does then I can’t proceed working with it. You have completely taught me how this works. Words read in a book just don’t teach me but the stickers were genius and the gentle way you speak were exactly what I needed ! Thank you for your generosity!

@rashby8858 2 года назад

Woman, you are amazing. I have learned the majority of my spinning wheel knowledge from you. You present with such clarity, I am indebted to you. Today I will check out a double drive wheel (I have only spun on Scotch tension), and I needed this information to evaluate the wheel properly. (Wish me luck today.). Thank you for being my personal tutor. ❤️

@JillianEve 2 года назад

Good luck! I'm reading this 2 days later. I hope it all worked out for you!

@rashby8858 2 года назад

I did not purchase that particular wheel (a very pretty Paradis) because of probable dampness exposure. BUT…. because of your wonderful tutorials, and some luck, I am now owner of several wheels that I will lovingly restore to their full beauty and functionality. (The wheels make my heart leap with their beauty.) This is my current double drive question: I purchased a like-new Country Craftsman and set up the cotton cord per your instructions. The cord touches where it crosses! (Remember, this was my very first double-drive set-up, as I have only spun Scotch tension.). I thought I was doing something wrong, so I did a cord set-up on my CPW (newly purchased; not yet fully ready), and that worked out perfectly, not touching. Could this be a flaw in the design of the CC? There is not a lot of info on CC’s, although there is a group on Ravelry, which is not very active. Do you have any information? Thanks, Guru.

@JillianEve 2 года назад

@@rashby8858 yes, check out my video about tying the driveband on. There are closeups of "the cross" that will help. Happy spinning! 🧶💜😊

@marlahunt583 3 года назад

This is such a God send. I have been really confused at times. Especially on the bobbin assembly, whorls, and mother of all. I keep watching it all agog. (All giggles and stomping feet.) I have only been looking for some answers all year.

@erinklarr8734 Год назад

AH! I'm only halfway through this video and it has been so helpful. My husband bought a spinning wheel for me, because we have Pygora goats and now we need to do something with all the hair! I don't know anything about spinning wheels, and I just love that you're giving a spinning wheel anatomy and physiology lesson! (And yes, my spinning wheel is a double drive). Weirdly, my parents also bought me a spinning wheel that I have to assemble, which I think is single drive, so I'll have to watch that tutorial some day too!

@elizabethscott3218 2 года назад

What an interesting picture (in reference to the castle style wheels) - I had no idea they had been around that long!

@elizabethscott3218 2 года назад

I have a Schacht Ladybug that I was trying to use in double drive, but I need some drive band suggestions (mine didn't have the DD band when I bought it). I've tried #10 cotton thread and fingering weight linen yarn (not enough tension) and a thicker cotton yarn that was too thick to go into the bobbin Grove.

@barbarajeandixon6809 3 года назад

Thank you , thank you, thank you! Between this video, and your video on SWSO, I have managed to get my spinning wheel functioning! All the parts were there, someone had just painted over them, so everything that should move, was stuck together, and if it shouldn't move, it was loose and flying around! Between your two videos I have everything working great now! Just finished adjusting the tension so that the bobbin takes up the fiber neatly. It is a castle wheel, double drive, so a little different, but your videos have helped turn it from a (nicely painted) decoration into a functioning wheel! (BTW I got it for $20 or else it was going to become kindling for a fire! A couple hours of labor and it works like a charm!)

@JillianEve 3 года назад

They both have that screw on whorl, and I haven’t been able figure out how to do both Z and S twist, or why the drive band keeps popping off. I’m pretty sure I have a lot to learn from you. How do I get to the Friday thingie?

Hiya! Just what I needed! I bought an antique spinning wheel like the one you showed. I cannot get it to work, but now I found out it's because it has to go double 😊 Thank you so much. I'll try right away... though I would have loved to actually SEE you put on the cotton band❤ You are great🤗

Thanks for making this easy to understand. I have a double drive Pipy saxony and she draws fast. I understand better now, thank you!

Evie, thank you so much for this video. I just purchased an antique saxony style spinning wheel and have no idea how to get it to work but with your video, I think I can get started on this. I now need to watch your video on putting the drive band on, hopefully I'll do that part okay. I'm looking forward to trying this wheel. I love your videos!

This video was JUST what I needed! I found a used spinning wheel and it turns out it's a double drive! Everything in this video is helping me get it set up and start spinning. My first ever spinning wheel! Thank you!

I played around with my wheel last night and had issues with the tension. I am going to clean the wheel up today and play with the tension more. Thank you for another great video!
