This TURKISH style drop spindle has removable bars for winding balls on the spindle as you go!

  • Instructions included
  • Leader included
  • Solid beech wood
  • Hand waxed by us finish!
  • Chrome top hook

Used in the same way as a regular drop spindle except that you wind a centre pull yarn ball as you go! The cross arms come apart for flat storage.

Also available as a full kit...

Let us make it a complete spinning kit for you - we'll add 2 x 50g of 100% natural combed wool tops, and a pretty organza style drawstring bag to keep everything clean and cosy! This would make a lovely gift for a total beginner or a seasoned spinner.

A drop spindle is a fun way to experience hand spinning with minimal outlay - no expensive spinning wheel required. The spindle is spun to add twist to the wool fibres which are then drafted and wound onto the shaft as yarn. No experience required just plenty of practice - starter instructions are included.

This drop spindle would match up nicely with any one of ourĀ natural sheepĀ wools orĀ mixed fibre bags.
