The spindle is held between thethumb and first finger of the right hand, and stands vertically in the earthen bowlThe operator now gives the spindle a twirl, as a boy turns his top, and while it isrevolving, she proceeds to draw out her thread, precisely as is done by our own opera-tives, in using the common spinning-wheel. As soon as the thread is spun, the spindleis turned in an opposite direction, for the purpose of winding up the thread on theportion of it next to the wooden block.
