It depends ?
If you use the high speed setup you¡¯ll have to see how fast twist is going in and adjust how fast you are feeding the yarn into the wheel to get the amount of twist you want.
If you use your regular whorl and bobbins and a slower ratio but you¡¯ll have to do the same monitoring you get the amount of twist you want, and you will probably have to treadle faster or feed the yarn in slower to get the same amount of twist in.
I almost always ply at a higher ratio than I spin but thats because I don¡¯t want it to take any longer than it has to.

?I¡¯m almost done spinning singles from a project I started at least 2 years ago. I¡¯m using my matchless with the high speed whorl and high speed bobbins to make a fine yarn. As a two ply it looks like a light fingering/heavy lace weight.
When I ply, would I also continue to use the high speed whorl and bobbins? I wondered if it would add too much twist. I only have two high speed bobbins so just planning whether I need to rewind the singles so I can do the plying.
