I found this unusual spindle called a trindle at the Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair. It spins like a dream. You can find them on Etsy at Trindleman's store. Now I plan on buying one of his supported spindles.

What was your inspiration?

I had seen a trindle in the past and thought it was so unique.

I can spin with it while it is rotating. I have progressed from park and draft with this spindle.

The spindle called a trindle can be found at www.etsy.com/shop/trindleman . It is so pretty when it spins. I plan to get one of his supported style spindles next.

I've been looking at these spindles for quite a while now but haven't bought yet. What do you like most about them and what do you like least, if anything?

I like its weight. It spins for a long time. I don't need to park and draft with it. You just flick it to get it started again. I also love how pretty it looks while it is spinning. So far, there is nothing I dislike about it.
