I spin flax off a distaff. Is not too difficult to get used to. 
Although, dressing the distaff well is very important.

I might suggest starting with rovings of linen tow first, as it is 
shorter fibers and easier to spin than flax line.

I purchased hanks of combed, ready to spin flax from Halcyon. They look 
like blonde horse tails.
