Drop Spindle Fiber Artists - Our
Kate works well with spindles
- We have developed a breakthrough
in transferring yarn
|
|
|
|
Nancy has done it again! She has invented
another portable solution to meet the needs of fiber artists. The Katie a-Go-Go™
allows spinners to take a fully functional Lazy Kate with them no matter
where they go. Best of all, the Katie a-Go-Go™ has a fully adjustable
tensioning system just like the larger Lazy Kate's.
|
| |
|
 |
-
There is
no
other Lazy Kate on the market that you can fit into
-
a 8 x 8 x 1" sack!
|
| |
|
| |
|
The Katie a-Go-Go™ fully
assembles
in less than a minute.
It has just 6 parts plus a
carrying sack. There are no tools
required to assemble it. The user screws the
center dowel into the base by hand. They then insert the 3 steel bobbin rods. Then,
they slip either 2 or 3 bobbins onto the rods and insert the tensioning dowel into the base. Lastly, they wrap the
cord around the bobbins and then pull their yarn through the center
dowel's yarn loop. That's it!

The Katie
a-Go-Go™ accommodates up to 3 bobbins. Pictured at left are Majacraft
bobbins which tend to have a larger diameter than many bobbins currently on
the market. Our latest design uses bobbin rods which will accommodate
virtually all known bobbins on the market today .
|
|
|
| The
tensioning system
is simple and effective. The user controls the tension by turning the dowel
while it is seated in the base of the unit. The other end of the tensioning
cord is connected to the stationary dowel via a small rubber band. |

yarn guide instead of the newer single loop. All units are made with a
single loop because of its superior yarn handling characteristics. Our new
single loop yarn guide dowel screws into the base. |
