A method for preparing of a workstation for the resumption of the spinning process on an air-jet spinning machine, in which after an interruption of spinning, the yarn is - either detected by attending device on the bobbin of the winding device , is unwound from the bobbin and is passed to the means of the workstation to be back in its working path between a spinning nozzle and winding device to be held by a drawing-off mechanism , - or the yarn is stopped in a controlled manner with the end of yarn in the working path between the spinning nozzle and the winding device , - then the end of yarn is inserted into an outlet opening of the spinning nozzle , - then the yarn is in the direction against the direction of the motion of the yarn during yarn formation transported through the spinning nozzle to a feeding device of fibers and through the feeding device as far as to a guide channel having exit portion between outlet of the drafting mechanism of sliver and inlet of the feeding device of sliver , - in the guide channel there is on the yarn formed a spinning-in end of yarn and - formation of yarn reserve in an underpressure yarn storage device between the spinning nozzle and the winding device of yarn is started, characterized by that - the reverse motion of the yarn to the guide channel before the formation of spinning-in end of yarn is performed by reverse motion of the drawing-off mechanism of yarn of the workstation which is located between the spinning nozzle and the winding device and - after the formation of the spinning-in end of yarn in the guide channel , the reverse motion of the yarn to the guide channel continues by reverse motion of a drawing-off mechanism of yarn , and - the formed spinning-in end of yarn is moved further behind the place of its formation in the direction of yarn insertion into the guide channel to a monitored and controlled position behind the device for preparing a spinning-in end of yarn and a defined length of yarn in the guide channel is created. - either detected by attending device on the bobbin of the winding device , is unwound from the bobbin and is passed to the means of the workstation to be back in its working path between a spinning nozzle and winding device to be held by a drawing-off mechanism , - or the yarn is stopped in a controlled manner with the end of yarn in the working path between the spinning nozzle and the winding device , - then the end of yarn is inserted into an outlet opening of the spinning nozzle , - then the yarn is in the direction against the direction of the motion of the yarn during yarn formation transported through the spinning nozzle to a feeding device of fibers and through the feeding device as far as to a guide channel having exit portion between outlet of the drafting mechanism of sliver and inlet of the feeding device of sliver , - in the guide channel there is on the yarn formed a spinning-in end of yarn and - formation of yarn reserve in an underpressure yarn storage device between the spinning nozzle and the winding device of yarn is started, characterized by that - the reverse motion of the yarn to the guide channel before the formation of spinning-in end of yarn is performed by reverse motion of the drawing-off mechanism of yarn of the workstation which is located between the spinning nozzle and the winding device and - after the formation of the spinning-in end of yarn in the guide channel , the reverse motion of the yarn to the guide channel continues by reverse motion of a drawing-off mechanism of yarn , and - the formed spinning-in end of yarn is moved further behind the place of its formation in the direction of yarn insertion into the guide channel to a monitored and controlled position behind the device for preparing a spinning-in end of yarn and a defined length of yarn in the guide channel is created. <EOS>
