Schacht Spinning Wheel Whorls
Whorls for Schacht Spinning Wheels
Each new Schacht spinning wheel comes with a medium and a fast speed whorl. Whorls allow the bobbin to turn at a particular speed in relation to the revolutions of the wheel’s drive band. This relationship is given as a spinning ratio.
A slower (bigger) whorl will slow down the bobbin and produce a yarn with less twist; a faster (smaller) whorl will speed up the bobbin and produce a yarn with more twist. Each Schacht whorl has a bigger and smaller ridge into which the drive band can sit, so each whorl gives two possible spinning ratios.
Thread Collective now offers a broad spectrum of whorls to fit the Flatiron, Ladybug, Matchless, and Sidekick spinning wheels from Schacht. Choose the size you want and the wood to match your Schacht wheel. Whorls are interchangeable for these spinning wheels.
Note: The cherry variant is available upon request. Please message us to confirm availability.
