Thank you Kathy. What i do to make the small loops is I press my pointer finger on the wire and simultaneously twist my right wrist away from me and twist the cab towards me, doing it this way it should give you a smooth, full circle. The only other thing that helps is practice, practice, practice. Hope this helps and best of luck.
Tammy
