It can be done in several ways; for example, with one’s fingers, a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/threadcollective.com.au\/collections\/spinning-wheels?filter.p.product_type=Drop+Spindle\"\u003edrop spindle\u003c\/a\u003e or a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/threadcollective.com.au\/collections\/spinning-wheels?filter.p.product_type=Spinning+Wheel\"\u003espinning wheel\u003c\/a\u003e. Spinning with your fingers is a very slow process that will produce an irregular yarn. Using a drop spindle will ease the process. A drop spindle is made of a round stick to which a flat round disk has been attached. A string is attached to this disk and the drop spindle hangs with the disk down. On one hand the spinner holds fibres to be spun, the other hand takes small amounts of fibres and adds this to the existing yarn. Use a free hand to spin the drop spindle and the twisting movement of the drop spindle creates yarn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description-short lessmore\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"#\" class=\"readmore\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eRead More\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description-full\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA huge improvement compared to the drop spindle is the use of the spinning wheel.

The S10, which was developed in the 1970s, has been such a success that it is a classic among modern spinning wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first generation Louët spinning wheels, like the S10 and S17, all have a single belt bobbin drive with an adjustable flyer brake to regulate tension. This results in spinning wheels that are very easy to learn how to spin on, and the wheels are very suitable to spin thicker yarns. The bobbins have a sheave with three settings that can be used to obtain three spinning speeds or ratios. By using different types of bobbins and flyers, Louët spinning wheels can be used to produce every kind of yarn, from coarse wool to fine silks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/threadcollective.com.au\/collections\/spinning-wheels?filter.p.product_type=Spinning+Wheel\u0026amp;filter.p.vendor=Ashford\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAshford Spinning Wheels\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are still starting to learn the art of spinning or have been using a spinning wheel for years, there is sure to be an Ashford spinning wheel to suit your style and needs.

The Schacht Sidekick Folding Spinning Wheel is a durable, fully functional, lightweight, and portable spinner that can easily be folded and offers comfortable spinning with its orifice height and long treadles. With this spinning wheel, you can create beautiful spun yarns wherever you may be.
