My first Homemade Spindle
So I Made My Own!
I'm really liking the hand spindling. I think it is one, fascinating and two, such a feeling of satisfaction when an entire spindle is full with lovely singles. Here are the pics. Its just a basic dowel, little wire hook and a rubber grommet I got at a local hardward store with a 50mm donut bead ordered off the internet.
I now have three spindles and this is the lightest one. I haven't weighed it yet, but I sure am able to get a very fine single out of it. I can't remember what this fiber is and maybe I never knew anyway. It was some freeby fiber I got when I took a class with Judith MacKenzie last year in Santa Monica. What do you think? Want one?
