Majacraft Kit – Lace
Canadian shipping only. Price per complete kit.
The Lace Kit includes two wood lace bobbins, a Lace Flyer with low-friction and hard-wearing ceramic inserts and a fast pulley. The lace bobbins have a "fat" core that reduces the tension on the yarn as you spin. The lace E-Flyer and E-Hook have hard-wearing ceramic inserts. The ceramic has a very low friction coefficient so the spun yarn glides effortlessly through the guides. The fast whorl will help you spin finer yarns with ease. All of the new Majacraft bobbins and flyers will work on all of their wheels, including the Aura.

Majacraft Bobbin, Wood – Lace
Canadian shipping only. Majacraft's new wooden Lace Bobbin is made using laser-cut bamboo ply with 3d printed rings and fibreglass tubes. The new design minimizes the sound made by the tension string in the bobbin groove and allows you to see your yarn as you spin, through the cutout ends. All the new Majacraft bobbins will now work on the Aura wheel. Launched in late 2020.
In Majacraft's words:
"The Lace Bobbins have been created to spin very fine lace weight yarns. The special thin wall fibreglass cores make for very light bobbins and will allow you to have extra sensitive brake adjustment. This is essential for lace spinning. By combining this bobbin with our lace flyers you will be able to spin at very high speeds with ease. These bobbins have a “fat” core to reduce the “yarn-to-bobbin angle” and hence the tension on the yarn as you spin (to prevent unnecessary breakage of fine yarns)."

Majacraft Little Gem Folding Wheel – currently Pre-order
April 13/26 - currently on order.
Canadian shipping only. Generally IN STOCK, we try to have a Little Gem assembled here in our store, and another available for shipping. FREE SHIPPING in Canada, by Expedited Ground post.

The Little Gem is a state of the art travelling folding wheel. It is especially useful for those who need to transport their spinning wheel but it has the capability and smoothness to cater for all types of spinning.
The Gem easily handles tasks of spinning and plying wool, mohair, silk, etc. The Little Gem, although small and incredibly light (around 4kgs or 10 Lbs), is a full height with attractive design.
This design of this wheel is a revolutionary new concept. Some of the Little Gem features:

- quick change flyer
- sealed bearings, so no oiling required
- sliding flyer hook
- sensitive Scotch tension
- New Zealand Rimu hardwood construction
- compact and light

Majacraft Turkish Spindle Set
Canadian shipping only.
Recently redesigned, Majacraft's new Turkish spindle set features four different sets of cross arms so you can select the best weight for the type of yarn you wish to spin. Made from Bamboo plywood with a single shaft measuring 30.5 cm (12 inches) with a small knob at the top end rather than a hook. The four sets of cross arms give an approximate total weight of 10, 15, 20 or 30g (.3, .5, .7 or 1 oz)
We love the flexibility this set offers the spinner, letting you make any thickness of yarn you desire. Comes with a cute little fabric bag with a drawstring. Everybody will think you have a plastic recorder in your handbag -- remember those? Instead of playing "Hot Cross Buns" you can impress them with your spinning instead.
