Knitting Any Way...Spindolyns

For more information about choosing a spindolyn, compatibility with old spindolyn bases, instruction sheet and more, visit the FAQ page.
For shipping and return info, visit here.

NOTE The Spindolyn is made of two parts, the spindle whorl with it's brass shaft, and the wooden base with it's specially shaped brass tube that the shaft rides in.
You will need to order both parts~the spindle and the base, for the spindolyn to work. (unless you already own a spindolyn base)

~ Shipping Policy~
As with all of our products, each item is individually made on a per order basis. The glue and finish has to be completely dry and the quality checked before the spindles can be shipped out.
Most order ship within a few days, but I am a one woman business, and sometimes, if it is a time of high demand, I can run as much as a week behind. But be assured I am pedaling as fast as I can. If you are in a great hurry for a special reason, like a birthday, please email and I will try my best to accommodate your need for speed.

  Overseas and international orders: After you have put items in your cart, click "proceed to checkout" (you will still have time to change things before payment) At the top of your shopping cart, you will see a drop down menu where you can find your country's shipping calculation, if you do not, contact me.
  Other countries and wholesale inquiries, or any questions at all, contact me via email at
cadymay( )gmail( )    ( please fill in the @ and the .com in the email address)

~ Satisfaction Policy~
I want your experience with the spindolyn to be a happy one. If something goes awry (wrong spindle shipped, defective, whatever, even though I really try very hard, perfection in this lifetime is not going to happen for me) I will be happy to exchange or replace your spindle for the correct model or refund your money (including postage) if you choose to return it.
If you return it because you decide spinning is jut not for you, I will also refund your money. (not including postage)
In addition, I will be happy to give you spinning tips to help you get over the hump of learning, just give me holler at
