Over the years we have been discussing, on and off, the fact that some
bobbins seem to twist / untwist more than others.
At present I am working a wide torchon edging in cashmere/silk mix, with the
same thread and Swedish bobbins throughout. ON the left I have a half
stitch fan for the headside, and on the right of the pattern is a variety of
cloth stitch pairs and some ct pin ct areas.
The bobbins in the half stitch area are losing their twist, and those on the
right side with mostly ct pin ct are steadily gaining twist. Those in the
middle (which probably travel in and out of the other areas) are more
stable. I have never seen such pronounced differences as working in this
lace-weight yarn.
