Twist

Twist

Watch it happen.
Multiple, aligned fibres slip, slide.
Long draw running through my fingers softly;
travel past the flyer’s eyes, then wrap around a bobbin.
Twisting, winding, filling, evenly, smoothly; woolee winder makes it so.
Plying doubles, triples, opposite spinning for perfect projects.
Lastly with a tailored niddy noddy
skeins are made by
twisted sisters.
