SPARROW

Made from carbon fiber and 3D printed ABS plastic, the Sparrow is a light Scotch or Irish tensioned electric spinning wheel that is optimized for finer weights and higher speeds. Capable of over 2,000 rpm, yet Sparrow is just as comfortable walking and jogging from 300-900 rpm. Swap from Scotch to Irish quickly, when your project needs the extra take up that Irish offers... or use Scotch to keep tension low for the finest yarns. Its petite size is perfect for travel.

SINGLE SPEED RPM

2 SPEED RPM

The above stats were recorded from Rebecca Giles's Sparrow, Una with a Aluminum Drum bobbin. The RPM (rotations per minute) can vary slightly from one wheel to the next, so please use this as a general guideline. The 2 Speed Sparrow has a pinion with two grooves. The small groove is Low Speed and the large groove is High Speed.
