Custom Iris spindle

The spindle had no nut on it at all when I got it, the stuff was held on by a vice grip.

Hedgerow Harvest

Beautiful pink and orange seed of the spindle. This was growing in a hedgerow by the M11 motorway. The people whizzing by had no idea of the parallel world beside them.

For sale. If you are interested in this beauty, just message me.

This is my homemade spindle #1. It is a mini spindle, really. I am spinning some raw fiber here. I think it's alpaca, but it was in a bag of unmarked fiber so I'm not sure. The yarn is very fuzzy. The spindle is made from an antique bone crochet hook and a bead. It works!

will look better when there's more spindles in, of course, and I'll probably fill the cups with rice to help steady them.

My new spindle from Kundert Spindles. It is a fantastic little bit of engineering, weighing in at a smidge over one ounce (exactly 30 grams, to be precise). The whorl is cherry with bubinga overlay and yellowheart dots. The shaft is walnut.

In the background is a Politically Incorrect braid of Starter Wives Chevon, superwash merino, 4.2 ounces.
