✦ Our Story

A fiber festival booth,
every single day

Spindle began as a booth at the Oregon Flock & Fiber Festival — baskets overflowing, skeins hanging in afternoon light, fingers reaching before eyes could focus.

We carry only fibers we've spun ourselves. If we can't tell the difference between Targhee and Cormo by touch, it doesn't land on a shelf.
