Medium Turkish Drop Spindles
Handmade medium Turkish drop spindles—the most versatile and popular size for everyday spinning across a wide range of fiber types and yarn weights. These balanced, all-purpose spindles are perfect for spinners working with everything from fine merino to medium-weight fleece, offering the ideal combination of portability, spin time, and control for both beginners and experienced fiber artists.
Each medium spindle is handcrafted from beautiful soft and/or hardwoods with careful attention to weight distribution and balance. The mid-range whorl size provides excellent momentum for consistent spinning while remaining light enough for extended use without hand fatigue. Whether you're spinning sock yarn, worsted-weight projects, or experimenting with different fiber preparations, these spindles deliver smooth, reliable performance across the board.
Perfect for spinners who want one versatile tool that handles most projects, medium Turkish drop spindles are the workhorse of any fiber artist's toolkit. Ideal for learning, teaching, traveling, or daily spinning practice, they offer the flexibility to grow with your skills and adapt to your creative vision. Proudly made in America since 2012 with eco-conscious practices and traditional woodworking techniques.
