SPINNING: Small Tools & Accessories

DROP SPINDLES
One of the very oldest of the world’s tools, still an effective way of making yarn: easy, portable, inexpensive. The Louet has a turned veneer plywood whorl (the bottom whirl has a hook on top, top whirl – hook on bottom); the Davidson has the hook on the bottom. The Schacht 4" and 3" are now "hi-lo", with a hook at the whorl end and a notch at the other, for either high or low whorling. The long-shafted Schacht Navajo is a hip-roll spindle. The Schacht Pear Tahkli has a brass shaft with a hook, a pear-shaped maple whorl.
Schacht Hi-Lo spindles

HANDCARDS & FLICK CARDERS
Bent teeth set in rubberized canvas for easy action and long life. Hardwood handles and backs. Handcards come in pairs that work together; Flick Carders come singly.
Basic instructions for Drop Spindles & Handcards are free with order - just ask. Or find them on our web-site: go "Home" and then to "Instructions".
NIDDY NODDIES
Traditional turned-wood skein-makers. One end comes off the Reeves, for easier storage, secured while working with a steel locking-pin. The Country Craftsman needs to be glued (permanently) together. The Louet has two shafts with different lengths, for a choice of two skein lengths.
MINI COMBS An alternative to handcards — a single row of longer, stiffer teeth set into a 2 x 4 inch base attached to a handle. Made by Louet.
SPINNING EQUIPMENT OIL A special blend formulated for spinning wheels and drum carders. Apply a drop to each of the wear points of your equipment.
