The unique and original "quill supported" engineering of the spindolyn™ eliminates the "drop" of a drop spindle, the need for the support of a support spindle and give a smooth, fast spin, great for medium fine to fine yarns.
The spindolyn™ is made of two parts, the spindle whorl with it's brass shaft, and the wooden base with it's specially shaped brass tube that the shaft rides in.The base sits between your knees, tucks in your pocket or outer purse pocket or fits into a bean bag pouch so that it can sit comfortably anywhere on your lap.
A spindolyn can be used for fine and short to medium and long, from "cotton to Cotswold" so to speak. It is not a production spinner, but it is easy, fun and relaxing. Perfect for spinning sitting down, in the car, tucked in your pocket, in your easy chair or while lounging on the couch! The hardwood base and whorls are finished with a hand rubbed non-toxic oil finish of my own recipe of a combination of grapeseed oil, coconut oil, carnauba wax and beeswax.
The spindolyn comes with a 2 page instruction sheet.
