Spinning Tools & Accessories
Essential Tools and Accessories for Spinning
Investing in the right tools and accessories can greatly enhance your spinning journey, whether you spin as a hobby, for creativity, or to create beautiful yarns for knitting or weaving projects. From the spinning wheel itself to bobbins, flyers, lazy kates, and other accessories, each tool plays a crucial role in simplifying the process and ensuring consistent results.
Why Should You Buy Spinning Tools & Accessories?
Spinning can be done with minimal tools or improvised alternatives. However, investing in purpose-built tools can enhance your skills, productivity, and enjoyment of this timeless craft.
-
Efficiency and Productivity: Spinning tools are designed to streamline the spinning process, making it more efficient and productive. The right tools can help you spin yarn faster and with greater precision, allowing you to create more yarn in less time.
-
Quality Yarn Production: High-quality yarn is produced with the use of the proper equipment and accessories. Spinning wheels, bobbins, and flyers are specifically designed to create consistent and well-balanced yarn. The thickness, twist, and texture of your yarn can be customized with the appropriate equipment.
-
Versatility: Different tools and accessories provide versatility in spinning. For example, bobbins allow you to spin multiple colours or fibres without interruption, while a Lazy Kate simplifies the plying process. These tools enable you to explore various spinning techniques and experiment with different fibres, colours, and textures.
-
Organization and Control: Tools like Lazy Kates, Niddy Noddies, and yarn swifts help you maintain control and organization throughout the spinning process. They prevent tangles, facilitate skeining, and enable you to create consistent yarn balls or cakes. By staying organized, you can focus more on your spinning and less on untangling or managing yarn.
-
Comfort and Ergonomics: Spinning tools and accessories, such as spinning stools or chairs, are designed with ergonomics in mind. They promote good posture, reduce fatigue, and ensure a comfortable spinning experience, especially during long spinning sessions. Comfortable tools allow you to fully immerse yourself in the craft without unnecessary strain or discomfort.

A Niddy Noddy comes in different sizes, producing yarn skeins from 30cm to a meter in length.
A small niddy noddy, just like the Ashford Sampler, is commonly used for small samples or yarn. Spinners spin a sampler length of yarn, ply it and skein it, using their niddy noddies before washing. This way they can see if the yarn is as preferred or not.
The most similar yarn winding tool to the Niddy Noddy is the Umbrella Swift. This kind of yarn winder is clamped onto the table and can easily be adjusted to hold larger lengths of yarn. However, the Umbrella Swift is not as portable as the Niddy Noddy.

3. Return to the starting point and you will then have a completed wrap.
