Free shipping in the lower 48 states on Louet spinning wheels!

 

New Louet Flyer

Please Note:
As of late 2007 Louet is making wheel models S10, S10DT, S51 and S51DT with flyers that have sliding hooks (same as the high speed flyer).  Models S15, S17 and S75 will still have flyers with stationary hooks.

 

Louet S10 Spinning Wheel

S10 Spinning Wheel
This is the original Louet wheel with minor modifications to keep it on the leading edge of spinning technology.  It has proven to be an ideal wheel for beginners and experts alike.  Sturdily constructed, it is suitable for production spinners.  The single hole in the wheel ensures that it always stops in the place where you stop.
Louet wheels treadle lightly, are easy to learn on and can be modified to satisfy the expert spinner.
The orifice on this wheel is sufficiently large - 1/2", as are the bobbins (6-9 ounce capacity), to allow you to create novelty yarns.
The fly wheel is 20" in diameter.
A two bobbin lazy kate is included.
Each wheel has a single belt bobbin-drive with an adjustable flyer brake to regulate the tension.
All bobbins have a sheave with three settings on one side. The ratios are: 1: 5.5, 1: 7.5 and 1:10.5.
This 18 lb wheel is made of laminated hardwood with a "birch" exterior finish.
Louet uses maintenance-free ball bearings in the main hub and at the footman connection (No lubrication is required). Minor assembly required, tools and instructions are included.

Price: $590.00  #159203

 

 

Louet S10 DT Spinning Wheel  

S10 DT Spinning Wheel
Instead of a single treadle as on the standard S10 wheel, the S10 DT is equipped with a double treadle (DT).  This double treadle works like a bicycle, both feet go in opposite directions which allows for light, relaxed, two-foot treadling.  It has proven to be an ideal wheel for beginners and experts alike.  Sturdily constructed, it is suitable for production spinners.  The single hole in the wheel ensures that it always stops in the place where you stop.
Louet wheels treadle lightly, are easy to learn on and can be modified to satisfy the expert spinner.
The orifice on this wheel is sufficiently large - 1/2", as are the bobbins (6-9 ounce capacity), to allow you to create novelty yarns.
The fly wheel is 20" in diameter.
A two bobbin lazy kate is included.
Each wheel has a single belt bobbin- drive with an adjustable flyer brake to regulate the tension.
All bobbins have a sheave with three settings on one side. The ratios are: 1: 5.5, 1: 7.5 and 1:10.5.
This 18 lb wheel is made of laminated hardwood with a "birch" exterior finish.
Louet uses maintenance-free ball bearings in the main hub and at the footman connection (No lubrication is required). Minor assembly required, tools and instructions are included.

Price: $699.00

 

 

Louet S17 Spinning Wheel

S17 Spinning Wheel
In order to attract more aspiring spinners, we have designed a budget spinning wheel: the S17.  This wheel comes unlacquered.  Costly and wasteful machining processes are also avoided by the use of birch plywood as the main construction material.  The technical specifications are related to the S10.  A lazy kate with two bobbins is included.  The best features of the Louet wheels are that they treadle lightly, are easy to learn on and can be modified to satisfy expert spinners.  The orifice is sufficiently large (1/2"), as are the bobbins (6-9 ounce capacity) to allow you to create novelty yarns.  All wheels come equipped with a two bobbin Lazy Kate. Technically all the models (except S45, Victoria) are the same, each wheel has a single belt bobbin drive with an adjustable flyer brake to regulate tension and the flexible polyurethane belts never have to be adjusted.  All bobbins have a sheave with three settings on one side, that can be used to obtain three spinning speeds (Ratios: 1: 5.5 slow spinning and heavy yarn, 1: 7.5 medium yarn and 1:10.5 fast spinning and fine yarn).  The fly wheels are 20" in diameter.  Finally, an excellent spinning wheel must turn freely and quietly, so, accordingly, Louet uses maintenance-free ball bearings in the main hub and at the footman connection (no lubrication required).
The S17 is a kit which requires complete assembly, instructions are included.
Weight: 15lbs

Price: $350.00  #159208

 

 

Louet Victoria Spinning Wheel

Victoria Spinning Wheel
Louet's portable, folding wheel.  It's light, just 6.5 lbs, and incredibly easy to use. The Victoria comes with 3 bobbins, and a 2 bobbin lazy kate.  The wheel is equipped with a scotch tension brake system and is available in Oak or Beech lacquered plywood .

Louet Julia Spinning Wheel

Julia Spinning Wheel
The newest wheel from Louet!  Julia is a Victoria version of the S51DT model.  Built to the high-quality standards that you have come to expect from Louet equipment, this full-size, upright wheel is easy to use.  The bobbins, flyer and Scotch Tension system are the same as used on the popular Victoria wheel.  The high speed set for the beech Victoria will also fit the Julia.
Specifications:
Orifice is 12mm with a removable insert to create 8mm for fine spinning.  The opening is approximately  28" above the floor.  The ratios are 1:6, 1:8.5, 1:12.5, 1:19, with an optional high speed flyer available to give you 1:27.  Main wheel diameter is 20".  The volume of the bobbins is 25 cubic inches (same as Victoria).  The lazy kate is stand-alone and you can adjust the brake for the bobbins that come with it.  Constructed of lacquered beech and birch plywood, it weighs approximately 12 lbs.
Please Note: This wheel does not fold but the base can be easily disassembled from the upright for storage or travel.

Louet Highspeed Spinning Set

Louet High Speed Spinning Set
Louet High Speed spinning set includes 1 drive belt, 3 Fatcore bobbins and 1 high speed flyer. Fits wheel models S10, S10DT, S51, S51DT, S15, S17 and S75DT.
The Louet High Speed Flyer uses either the hook or eye. Yarn can be spun on the flyer very evenly by first sliding the eye/hook forward on the flyer. Do this frequently as you spin, so that no ridges build up. (This is especially important with fine yarn.) The Louet High Speed flyer has a similar action to the Wooly-Winder, but unlike the Wooly-Winder (which is automatic) this high speed flyer allows the spinner to hand control the hook/eye, and does not jerk the yarn.

Price: $280.00

 

Victoria/Julia High Speed Spinning Set

Victoria/Julia High Speed Spinning Set

This high speed set for the Victoria or Julia contains a flyer, 3 bobbins, a small whorl (you have to add this to the existing whorl) and a hook for threading the yarn through the orifice and the flyer hole. The image is of the beech set, but in the oak set the flyer disc and the hook handle are oak. The orifice is 5 mm, but you can take out the inserts and have an 8 or 12 mm orifice.
Ratios are 1:20 and 1:30.
