$30.00

Darning Eggs and Drop Spindles are both $30.00 each.

Darning Eggs are used when sewing things like socks. A darning egg is a smooth, egg-shaped tool used to provide a firm, curved surface for mending holes and worn areas in knitted items like socks, gloves, or sweaters, helping to stretch the fabric taut to create even stitches and maintain the item’s original shape.

A drop spindle is used to hand-spin yarn. A drop spindle is a simple, traditional handheld tool used to spin raw fibers into a usable yarn by twisting and drafting them, consisting of a shaft, a weight (called a whorl), and often a hook, allowing it to be spun and “dropped” to add twist as yarn is formed and wound onto the shaft, making it a portable alternative to a spinning wheel.
