Wheels Designed for Art Yarns (FAQ)

Here is a list of spinning wheel makes & models that have bobbins and orifices ideal for spinning freeform art yarn. I find a 16 oz+ bobbin and open or large (1"+) closed orifice to be ideal.

Please email me if there is a spinning wheel that meets this criteria that I should add to this list.
