I’m torn about this dealgan. It feels good in my hand, spins great, and is gorgeous, but the grooves in the bottom aren’t deep enough to hold the yarn in place. I’m a new spinner, so maybe this would be more usable for someone with more experience, but for me it was frustrating to use. I certainly don’t recommend it for beginners, but maybe for someone with more experience it might be okay.

The design on the bottom of the spindle is what drew my attention. Great workmanship! May use as a nostepinne. Otherwise will just admire the beauty of the craftsmanship and will it to my daughter. Thank you.
