The Scottish Spindle has 3 Gaelic names:  Dealgan, Farsadh or Fearsaid.

Some sources suggest it was as far back as the late medieval period of the 14th and 15th century. Given the Scottish history with the English Lords and Kings suppressing their culture and with the Dealgans made only of timber during historical digs of recent times sometimes only little pieces were found. It is therefore hard to know for sure when the Dealgan first came into use in Scotland.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe most likely original shape and size the Dealgan had was with a square lower end with cross cuts on the bottom. It was also quite heavy, so was used for plying or medium weighted single yarn. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Dealgan Scottish Spindle has made a small revival thanks to the fascinating research made by Lois Swales and you can find her work here: https:\/\/missingspindle.blogspot.com.au\/ and of course a few other Spindle makers have produced these unique fibre tools since.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeing part Scot, I felt it was a fibre tool that I should have in my repertoire 😊\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI have made 2 styles of Dealgan: 1 for the more traditionalists out there who would like them to look as close as possible to the original, so when you are in medieval re-enacting and such, those are the way to go; and then 2. after Charly and I investigated and tested, and tested, we felt with a little groove towards the bottom stopped the single yarn from slipping off. My research lead me to believe that the original was quite heavy as I said before, but of course with new modern lathes we can made them more user friendly and lighter, so that you can spin finer yarn than would’ve surely been taken up by our Scottish cousins back in the day! The second more modern take on the Dealgan looks like a thistle still in the bud so I thought that was apt as well.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf you are unsure of how to use them there are several you tube videos around that you can use as a resource: The basic principle is that you create a centre pull ball by winding on in a nostepinne style. You then pull your yarn into one of the cross notches on the bottom of the Dealgan, then up the to the tip where a half hitch is created and your yarn will sit close to the small tip. You can then start twirling your Dealgan from the tip in a clockwise motion and start drafting and spinning your fibre into yarn. I found it easier to make a temporary cop on the upper part of the Dealgan so you can then start winding your final cop by winding three times then slightly turning the Dealgan and wind again, just like you would make a centre pulled ball by winding on a Nøstepinne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEvery Dealgan is unique and can have beautiful stone inlay or natural features, even some pyro graphic images. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCan’t find your dream Dealgan or need a special text added or a stone inlay?

For centuries, they were raised in isolation on the island where they played an integral part of the self-sufficient closed economy, providing both wool and meat. By the end of the 18th century there were over 6,000 sheep on the island of Ouessant. Despite their cute, small size, these charming little sheep produce a particularly beautiful and versatile wool. Ouessant sheep have a distinctive double-coated fleece with an average fibre diameter of 23-25 microns and, on average, fleeces weigh approximately 750 gms (1.6 lbs.). It is important to keep in mind that Ouessant sheep are an unimproved breed, which means that from one sheep to another there is less standardization and more variability in wool type and quality than one would normally find in modern improved breeds?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0376\/2356\/2379\/files\/51104589513_07db371ca5_o.jpg?v=1724739011\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBlended with the \u003c\/span\u003efamous, lustrous BFL sheep from the UK and some luxurious Cashmere, it makes for some very lush spinning. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0376\/2356\/2379\/files\/50886872181_2a77ab6646_o.jpg?v=1724739050\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInterested in reading more about the Ouessant sheep?

Once shorn it will never grow back as long again. On average Wensleydale sheep produce around 5kg of kemp free, usable wool per animal. Wensleydales are easily recognizable due to their extremely long fleece divided in to well-defined curly locks, and their deep blue head and ears. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWensleydale wool has the great advantage of being shiny, fairly soft and hard wearing. Yarns made from long wool are usually worsted spun, a spinning method that enhances the natural properties of the Wensleydale fleece by adding some extra strength, softness and sheen to the finish product. Ultimately Wensleydale wool is a great fibre to knit with, if you want to prioritize the strength, drape and shine of your knitted garments. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIntrigued by these sheep, you can read more about their history on the \u003ca title=\"IxCHeL Arts Crafts \u0026amp; Design Fibre Wensleydale Sheep Ixchelbunny Blog\" href=\"https:\/\/ixchelbunny.blogspot.com\/2022\/01\/let-2022-craft-adventures-begin.html\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eIxCHeL blog.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFibre Top Roving details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWeight per top: 100g \/ 3.52oz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eContents: Wensleydale 100%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCan’t find a colour you need for your project?

The sheep were nearly wiped out during the tribe's forced relocation in the 1860s and again in the stock reductions of the 1930s: federal agents just went from hogan to hogan* and shot a large percentage of the livestock and horses, more than 250.000 animals were killed and the Churro sheep were almost extinct with fewer than 700 head by 1990! But they are making a comeback, due to the efforts of the Navajo Sheep Project.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe hand dyed tops that are offered for you here, are the undercoat of the Churro sheep and it makes for the most wonderful yarn, suited for socks and outerwear as well as sweaters.  The micron range of this batch is around 23-25micron. It is very easy to spin and also beautiful to weave and felt with. Navajo sheep fleece is composed of 3 distinct types of fibre: inner coat, outer coat and kemp. The inner coat measures 6-12 cms and generally ranges from 10-35 microns, while the outer coat is 12-24 cms, and is generally above 35 microns. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFibre Top Roving Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight per top: 100g \/ 3.52oz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents: Navajo Churro 100%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’d like to read or see more about Navajo Churro, including information about the Dineh people and their weaving techniques, here’s a link to the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ixchelbunny.blogspot.com\/2022\/01\/\" title=\"IxCheL Arts Crafts \u0026amp; Design Fibre Yarn Custom Orders Contact Us\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eIxCHeL blog.\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAxéhéé (thank you in Dineh language) for your support!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e(Note: “hogan”: The name given to a traditional dwelling and ceremonial structure of the Navajo Indians of Arizona and New Mexico.
