Spindles & Tools

The Bellwether is pleased to offer spindles for beginners and collectors -- as my teaching and writing has increased, I have taken to bringing the well-known makers' spindles with me to offer in class, but am no longer listing them here on the website. Be sure to look me up at my next workshop or class to see what's available from Tabachek, Forrester, Jenkins, Kundert and other great spindle makers!

The spindles listed here are The Bellwether's Spindle, a terrific learning spindle, and the Natalie Silk Spindle, designed based on historic silk spindles and wonderful for spindle collectors. The "Jane Austen" of spindles!

The Full Circle Niddy-Noddy and Forrester Travel Niddy are great spindling tools, for winding 1-yard skeins.
