Prior to the invention of the spinning wheel, spindles were the common method of spinning wool into yarn. This simple tool adds twist to fiber as it spins, which is then wound around the shaft.💗

I just bought 12 ounces of fiber to try this myself. I’m going to need the help of my ancestors 😂

I’ve always wanted to learn how to spin. This drop spindle looks like something I could handle. This spindle with the cup hook just seems to make sense to me. Where could I find one?

Can somebody please answer this question for me.

After you’re done, spinning the yarn are you done? Can you immediately knit or crochet with it? I have her something that you need to take multi strands and ply them together before you can use them. This is true this is accurate? Thank you for the info.❤

I would like to know how you can tell if the strand is about to break & what to do if it does?

do you ever get negative comments when you are spinning in public? Things like, why are you wasting your time? Don't get me wrong, I love spinning on a drop spindle, I just get tired of the negativity and wonder if there is any way to counter it that I am missing.

Guess I just need to look into the whole process a little more thoroughly, lol...
