  • Hand Spindles 

    Our popular drop spindles just got better. Our new Hi-Lo Spindles offer the best of both whorls: a brass hook at the top for high-whorl spinning and a grooved shaft for low-whorl spinning. Three sizes offer a broad spectrum of spinning capabilities: 3" (2.2 ounces), 4" (3 ounces), and 2" (1.1 ounces).

    The 3” has a new, thinner profile that resembles our traditional 4” spindle.

    Our traditional Navajo spindle is designed for thigh spinning and has a 4 1/2" diameter whorl and a 30" long shaft.

     

    Pear TahkliOur Pear Tahkli support spindle is designed for spinning short fibers and very fine yarn.  It has a brass shaft and a hard maple pear-shaped whorl.
