Looking fab so far!!
The twists are where You're over spinning it.
It's soooooo common to over spin when you're a beginner.
Most of it will come out when you ply it - because you ply in the opposite direction to which you spun it.
Don't worry - with time you will get better with less over-spin.
Mine greatly reduced in a very short time.
Key is to spin small amounts frequently so you get plenty of practice.
I'm soooo excited for you!!
I have a spinning-buddy!!!
