Absolutely Beautiful How do you get the poling to progress so evenly? I have difficulty with this. Any tips would be appreciated

It's all about how you position your hands and tension. I like to keep mine pinched right where twist is introduced into the plies. I also use a tensioned lazy kate which helps keeps the bobbins flying all over the place. And I like a slightly tighter tension on my wheel too.
