Spinning

I wanted to post a picture of my wheel, along with my first attempt at spinning (not great). It's proving to be a tricky (to say the least), my main issue appears to be that I stop and start because I don't have a 'flow' going yet. When I stop-start, I end up with a wheel going the opposite direction, effectively unwinding the spinning I've just done. You will also see that it's extremely thick/thin, something I'm assured is normal for beginners and I'm sure it will improve with time and practice.

I did get some fish done yesterday though :)
