What is your favorite kate?
I have built a ton and own a Schacht and Ashford. I still get wicked spin-back and sometimes snap my yarn, especially when reeling it off to wash it.
Help!

Did you ever have an item you just couldn't identify? Or have a question that you didn't even know where to ask? These are mine.

I've got a Ewesful Kate built by Jude Pilote some years ago. I've not been able to figure out if she's still making them or not. It's got a spring tensioned adjustable fishing line that runs from one end to the other of the Kate, resting in the bobbin grooves and acting as a brake to stop backspin. It works pretty well, although it's too much pressure for some fine yarns. Do you want me to post a picture of it?
