Turkish spindle - 28g - Ash

This is a hand turned turkish spindle (also known as a cross arm spindle) made in Cumbria. This spindle has square holes in the arms instead of the more conventional round holes, which prevents the arms spinning without turning the shaft. When spinning is completed the arms are removed giving a ball of yarn. It is finished with wax.
