With the bobbin in my left hand, I maintain the body form with the thumb and fingers of my right hand. Each successive thread wrap will be held in place, on top, by the pressure applied by my index finger. Maintain this pressure on each wrap as you spiral the thread forward. This will keep the thread tension in place as you wrap forward to the tye off area. It is not easy at first, but once you see what is going on it becomes less confusing.
