Tahkli Spindle
Tahkli spindles are ideal for spinning cotton or other short stapled fibers because they are engineered to spin very fast. These Tahkli spindles are made of metal with a brass whorl that is well weighted. Use this support spindle on a bowl (wooden, ceramic or glass), the table top or your thigh to support the spindle as it spins. We have a lovely wooden one (click here).

Joan Ruane is an amazing teacher, and she can teach you how easy it is to spin cotton. Really. She travels around the country teaching how easy and fun it is to spin this wonderful fiber. These DVDs are available for spinners to learn at home just how easy it is to spin cotton. Great for Guild Libraries too!
Cotton Carders
Cotton hand carders are used to prepare cotton and other fine luxury fibers for spinning. The teeth are shorter and finer than wool carders because the cotton fibers are thinner and shorter than wool. The Carding area for the Schacht carders is 10.5″ x 4″ with 209 PPSI (Points Per Square Inch), and the Ashford carders are 10.5″ x 3.5″ with 190 PPSI.
