Collaboration with The Heritage Crafter

I have the pleasure of presenting these beautiful spindle whorls hand painted by the magical Kerri Williams.

Kerri & I wanted to make a batch of tools that represent both our heritage crafts, whist also acknowledging tools as objects of beauty and cultural artefacts in their own right; painted in matte chalk-based paints and unvarnished;

featuring the large Kromski drop spindle with my extra-large hook adaption for spinning chunky yarns, plus two ways to use this spindle as both a classic drop spindle and as a thigh spindle (the hook is removable especially for this technique).

these beautiful tool kits include;

Hand painted 10cm whorl by Kerri Williams (double-sided)

Removable 30cm spindle stick

Removable 3cm wide large metal cup-hook (pre drilled)

Printed cotton storage bag

Selection of undyed wools + dyed madder and walnut wools by Sarah Matthess of Highland Colours.
