Description: Supported spindles are ideal for spinning short-stapled fibers and those requiring a high degree of twist, such as cotton, cashmere, yak, and baby camel. Their design enables faster spinning without tugging on delicate fibers, allowing greater control over twist and draft, especially using techniques like “park and draft.” Matching spindle type, weight, and fiber preparation—such as punis, rolags, or clouds—is essential for an efficient and satisfying spinning experience with both luxury down fibers and fine wools.
