The Ashford Mini Niddy Noddy is not only a clever design and really cute, but it's
wonderfully useful and portable. This Mini makes a 24 inch (60 cm) skein
from those special yarns you spin - perfect for small skeins of silk, camel down
and other precious fibers.
The clever design allows you to slip the two halves apart so this Mini Niddy
Noddy will fit into your spinning basket or bag for easy portability.
The Mini Niddy has a nice lacquer finish and is ready to
use...$17.00

Nancy's Niddy Noddy
NKK has developed a new Niddy Noddy that solves many of the problems that are
present with other units on the market today...$49.99 #649103
The unit consists of the following parts:
2 Crossbars (1 with an "easy off"
feature
1 Long Handle (to make 1 and 2 yd skeins)
1 Short handle (to make 1.5 yd and 27"
skeins)
2 wooden balls with integrated bolts (ball
knobs)
1 custom designed zippered Denim sack with
pocket
Set of Spinning Project Kards
Optional 4 yard add-on handle...$14.99 (by special
order)
Here is what they have to say about it:
"Ours is really strong and sturdy. The cross-arms on our unit will
not break, wobble, loosen or otherwise fail to operate. When you assemble
the unit (which only takes a few seconds), you will immediately know you are
holding something solid."
"It has a special feature which is designed to hold your yarn so you
will not have to hold it in your hand while you start to wrap your skein."
"It will measure all of the required lengths of yarn:
1.0 Yard
1.5 Yards
2.0 Yards
27 inch sample
4.0 Yard - Optional Add-on"
"Unit comes packed in its own custom designed denim carry sack. This
is a Nancy's Knit Knacks' exclusive feature."
"Made from American Birch Hardwoods and steel."
"We employed the skills of an engineer and craftsman to assist in the
design of this unit. This has resulted in the industry's sturdiest design
for a Niddy Noddy."
"The 4 yard add-on consists of a 1" diameter Birch Handle -
identical in construction to the shorter handles. It can make a 2 yard skein
(by looping your skein over only 2 of the cross-arms), or a 4 yard skein by
looping the yarn over all 4 cross-arms in the conventional Niddy Noddy
manner. The Add-on handle does not come with a case and will not fit
into the standard Niddy Noddy Case. This should not be a problem, typically,
because most users will leave this long handle at home."
"Note: the three handles have the following lengths: 11-1/4, 15-7/8,
34.0 inches (4 yd)"
Showing the arm attachment. Note: the niddy is
no longer available in dark finish.
