An interchangeable Turkish spindle! This drop spindle can be used as a high or low whorl spindle, so it is perfect for new spinners who want to try out different spinning methods. To start spinning, attach your yarn or leader to the top of the spindle with a half hitch loop. As you wind your yarn around the arms of your Turkish spindle, you create a center pull ball! In order to ply your yarn, just take both ends of your center pull ball, and spin them in the opposite direction.
This spindle weighs 35 grams, which is a versatile medium weight spindle that can be used for both spinning singles and plying your yarn. Item No. 80700
