Braiding Bobbins

Bobbin braiding, also called whipcord, is a fun and fast way to make laces, box braids, and other beautiful cordage. One of the easiest fiber arts to learn!

Terracotta Whorls

Historically processed clay, pit-fired and burnished, to make you custom whorls for your historical spindles. Email with your preferences for historical culture and time period.

Primitive Looms

Learn to weave with neolithic technology! Backstrap and upright looms are amazingly compact and intuitive.
