Our Rhinebeck and Falling Leaves color schemes were so popular we decided to make you a winter wheel. Introducing the winter wheel for 2026, the Snowbird. Offered in both Starling and Sparrow, they are a white wheel body with the wheel name in light blue; on Starling, the orifice reducer is also light blue, with Royal tension pieces and silver yarn guides. I think these wheels turned out stunning; we hope you like them too.


Limited Edition Daedalus Ornaments


2026 Linear B “Wool” Ornament - $10


Over the years, we’ve had a couple of different holiday ornaments in the shop. For the next few years, we’ve decided to offer an ornament based on our bobbins' ends. This year we will have the Linear B “Wool” Bobbin end available. They will be in White, Silver, or Light Blue, your choice.


If anyone was curious, the bobbin was designed using the symbol for “wool” (in repetition). We chose the symbol for wool from the Archaic Greek language Linear B, a pictographic script used in the Mycenaean region of Greece between 1500-1200 BCE


New to the Shop

Sparrow Color Bobbin 3 Packs - The same sparrow bobbins you’ve come to love at the same price are available now; be the first to get them in sets of our most popular colors. There is a limited palette temporarily; however, after the new year, we will begin to offer them in our full range of colors.

How to Prepare for the Shop Update



General

  • Make sure you have a Daedalus Shop account. If you haven't already signed up for a shop account login on the shop, you'll want to ensure you do that ahead of time. At the top of the shop, you'll see a little person icon. Simply click on this, and on the next page, you'll click "Create account" to set up your account. Please ensure you fill out all the information and set up your shipping address so you don't have to worry about that later.

  • We highly recommend that you familiarize yourself with our shop.

  • For the best shopping experience, we recommend using a device that is capable of using Apple Pay or Google Pay. These methods of payment, if set up, are extremely quick. We also recommend if using PayPal to ensure that you are already logged in to your PayPal account in advance.

  • You'll want to ensure you add any additional items you'd like to purchase before the shop update. This could include things like a Speed Controller, which is required to operate our wheels (except for Dove and Martin). If you already have one of our wheels, you don't need to purchase another controller. You can also add extra packs of bobbins and a motor extension cable. Anything you can prepare in advance so that you can get through checkout as quickly as possible will improve your chances of scoring a wheel.

  • Please note that due to the number of orders that go through during a Shop Update, we do not combine orders. Please make sure to add any accessories to your cart ahead of the update, so all you will need to do is add your Shop Update item to your cart before checking out.

  • Our machines are in high demand, so they can go quickly, but we encourage everyone who would like one of our wheels, winders, and/or looms to try, and if you don't succeed in this batch, there will be more batches in the future!

  • Some items may sell out quicker than others, while other items may take a bit longer, so don't hesitate to check the shop even if you are late to the update.


Large Purchases

If you are purchasing multiple large devices, such as a combination of multiple wheels, winders, and/or looms, your order may need to be packed in multiple boxes. If we need to ship multiple boxes, we will send an email to notify you of the additional shipping invoice charge.


Outside Continental United States


Batteries

We no longer sell batteries. Check the following blog to learn about how to purchase officially recommended batteries. https://www.daedalusspinningwheels.com/post/officially-approved-batteries


If you have any questions before the shop update, please make sure to send us an email to support@daedalusspinningwheels.com so we can make sure all your questions get answered ahead of time.


Holiday Shipping Time Frames

Please bear in mind that this is a massive shop event, and it will take us time to pack up all the orders. Note that made-to-order items will add a slight delay to your order shipment. We will ship orders out as soon as possible.


Also, please note that the last shipments for the year will go out on Wednesday, December 16th; no other shipments will go out until after January 6th, 2027, no exceptions. This is to ensure all packages arrive before the holidays and to help ensure nothing gets lost in the holiday shipping chaos.


We also ask that any repairs be held and shipped after this period.



Happy Spinning, Weaving, and Winding!
