We are happy to now be able to offer a made-to-measure service for your Spindle. You can now choose the weight of whorl you wish to have from 25g (minimum) - 100g (maximum) in 5g increments. Whilst we cannot guarantee to product exactly the weight, we can product a weight within a few grams.
eg If you order a spindle weighing 30g it will be between 28g and 32g finished weight.
You can still order a Top or Bottom whorl and specify which end you would like the hand-crafted hook, or no hook at all.
All our shafts will continue to be in hand-turned Beech and our Made-to-Measure Spindles will be available in all the woods listed below for our Standard Spindles.
The special order spindles will be £20 each plus £2.50 for postage etc in the UK and £5 in the rest of the World.
To order, please contact us at: Moorec648ATaolDOTcom, replacing AT with @ and DOT with.
Thankyou.

Sublime Spindles
There's something magical about spinning. Handspun yarn has an incredible energy, and each skein is unique. If you've never tried spinning, it's easy to learn. Spinning with a drop spindle is portable and rather addictive!
Sublime Spindles produce beautifully hand crafted drop spindles, turned from wood from English trees. These tactile spindles are superbly balanced, and a dream to spin with. Each spindle is made to order, just for you.
