Slovak Spinner - 'Drúga' - Folk Art Flowers

This is a rotating spinner for spinning yarn. Its design is inspired by the Slovak 'Druga' spinner whereby a frame rotates around a centre pillar and creates spin on the fibre, thus creating yarn.

My design has a removable reel (which holds the spun yarn) that can be swapped out when full. It is also possible to spin both S-twist and Z-twist yarn on this, as well as ply.

This spinner favours thicker spinning and I wouldn't advise going much thinner than sock yarn (about 15 WPI) due to the tension it places on the yarn in order to rotate.

A full spinner consists of:
• One Handle (your choice of colour)
• Stopper (matches chosen handle colour)
• M5 Nut (the bolt is embedded in the handle)
• One Reel (this listing is for the folk art flowers design for which the petal colour can be customised. Other designs as well as plain are also available, check my other listings)

Additional Reels are available without purchasing a handle. If you would like to purchase a reel only, select 'None (Reel Only) when choosing your Handle. A full spinner (handle, stopper, nut and reel) is necessary for creating yarn.
