Spinning Wheel Louët Victoria - Travel Spinning Wheel S95 & S96
If your wheel feels more like a burden than a companion when you travel, the Louët Victoria is here to change that. Light, foldable, and beautifully crafted, it’s the perfect spinning wheel for creative journeys, near or far.
You know the feeling, packing for a weekend retreat or a visit to the coast, wishing you could bring your spinning with you. However, your wheel is heavy, awkward, or simply too much of a hassle. The Louët Victoria S95 and S96 solve that gently but decisively, offering a spinning experience that fits into your life, not the other way around.
At only 3.6kg, Victoria is light enough to lift with one hand, yet it delivers the same graceful, precise spinning you’d expect from a full-sized wheel. It folds neatly into a compact shape, tucks into a travel bag, and sets up in moments. Whether you're spinning yarns by the fire or at a fibre festival, Victoria moves with you, supports your creativity, and never gets in the way. With smooth double treadles and reliable Scotch tension, you stay in full control, relaxed, focused, and inspired.
