Turning a Drop Spindle in a niche manner without knowing how to use one

Here's another spinning/knitting related bit of treen. I've found since my partner developed an interest in knitting, spinning and weaving, that in a lot of ways these are complementary crafts to my own practice. And I enjoy making bits and bobs out of small pieces like this. (after this I had a go at spinning and found out that it is hard) This would have been a lot quicker on a powered lathe, but that's not what I've got.
