Choose from 5 styles. All carders come with curved backs except for the flick carder.
- Our wool carders are available in two gauges of carding cloth: 72 teeth per inch (an all-purpose carding cloth) and 112 teeth per inch (great for fine wool and downy fibers). Cloth dimensions: 7-3/4" x 5".
- Mini carders are a pint-sized version of our curved wool cards. Their light weight and smaller size make them quite popular. Available only with 72 tpi carding cloth. Cloth dimensions: 3-3/4" x 4".
- Our cotton carders are wider than our wool carders and slightly smaller in height. With 208 teeth per inch, they’re excellent for cotton and other short, fine fibers. Cloth dimensions: 10-1/2" x 4".
- Our flick carder, used to separate and tease fibers in preparation for spinning, has 72 teeth per inch on its cloth. It’s a single carder; work the fiber against a stiff piece of leather or heavy canvas. Cloth dimensions: 3-3/4" x 4".
