Spindle is a deciduous native tree, and mature trees grow to 9m and can live for more than 100 years. The bark and twigs are deep green, becoming darker with age, and have light brown, corky markings. Twigs are thin and straight.

 

Identified in winter by: the vivid pink fruits which have bright orange seeds. Buds and twigs are angular and green.

Here is a look at the yarn wound onto my 1-yd niddy noddy. Aside from the neps in the roving the yarn is remarkably even for it being my first real session of spindle spinning. I found the trick was to actually sit down rather than trying to stand and hold the roving over my head like I was told to do in October

A brief explanation of some of the physics behind spindle spinning, including why bottom whorl spindles are more stable.

My son broke my spindle after finishing just one project with it (well actually, just the singles). I usually keep it better protected but I left it sitting on a shelf for a couple hours. The next thing I know he was carrying it to me saying "Mommy? did I broke it a little? "

 

I will of course be sending it back to the maker and paying for a repair if he does them, because it was a lovely spindle in all respects.

I went to Lowes and found all the pieces (except for the skate bearing) to build my own Kick Spindle. Its a kind of supported Spindle for spinning wool. I'm so happy with it. What do you think??

These are a common enough sight in the hedgerows of Britain and are noted for being very poisonous

I believe this is a bone bead. Looks African to me. It's a good spinner, even though the bead is not centered perfectly.

Greenish twigs and tiny opposite buds. The older twigs can be very obviously ridged, though this character does not work as well as some literature suggests.

Spindle for spinning wool, flax (linen), or whatever.

Pictures don't do this spindle justice! It is absolutely luminescent in person and sort of smells like the sea.
