Louet Spinning Wheels give you the option to customise your wheel to suit your spinning style. Louet offers both Irish tension and Scotch tension and spinning wheels. If you are looking for a Louet spinning wheel for sale, Thread Collective has got you covered!
The Irish tension spinning wheels like the Louet S10C Irish tension and Louet S17, have a single belt bobbin drive with an adjustable flyer brake to regulate tension (Irish tension). The bobbins have three settings to allow you to control your speed. The Louet Irish Tensioned spinning wheel results in spinning wheels that are very easy to learn how to spin on, and wheels that are suitable for spinning thicker yarns.
The newer generation of Louet spinning wheels, like the Louet Victoria (S95/S96) and Louet S10C, are Scotch tensioned spinning wheels. Scotch tensioned wheels have a single belt, flyer drive with an adjustable bobbin brake to regulate the tension. The standard ratios on a Scotch are higher than those of an Irish, which makes it easier to spin fine yarns. The high-speed set allows the ratio to be increased even further.
Apart from spinning wheels, Louet also offers drop spindles for anyone who wants to spin yarn the traditional way, which is by hand. Choose from the top whorl drop spindle or button whorl drop spindle.
What is a top whorl drop spindle?
A top whorl drop spindle is great to use for handspinning thicker yarns. The weight remains ar the top during the spinning process. It is easy to use for beginners.
What is a bottom whorl drop spindle?
A bottom whorl drop spindle is the ideal choice for hand spinning worsted to bulky weight yarns. It spins a bit slower than the top whorl drop spindle, but is very useful in plying yarn.
