Hand Spindles you won’t want to put down!
Spindles are back! For lovers of lace weight yarn, we have the FiberShip™ spindle - with its center weight and thin rim, FiberShips™ are super spinners!
FiberShips™ generally start at 0.6 ounce and up, based on turning and wood. Shafts are turned from dyed, laminated US Birch, as in our hooks and knitting needles. Our shafts don’t warp! The spindle hooks are bent from strong copper wire that holds it shape. Whorls can be turned from laminates or hardwoods. Shaft lengths vary per spindle. Tom likes variety!
Note: the colored rings may vary within a given color (particularly the Sunrise) depending on the wood.
Made in Vermont by Tom Diak
The key to successful hand spinning is practice. Tom crafts spindles that are a joy to hold, to use, to treasure.
