This unopened drop spindle is a replica of an ancient device used to spin wool into yarn. It has been used throughout the world and is still in use today.
“It consists of a shaft and a whorl. The whorl acts as a flywheel to help spin the spindle shaft. The spinning motion causes the wool fibers to twist into a long strand of yarn. The simplicity and effectiveness of a drop spindle gives it advantages over the more complicated and costly spinning wheel.”
