LojanBuddy Spinning Wheel – Double Treadle

The Lojan Buddy is the newest spinning wheel from the drawing board of Jan Lout.

This portable and versatile wheel can spin thin yarn to art yarn and beyond without the need to change bobbins or flyers.

Dutch tension is Irish tension improved by Jan Lout: the spinning wheel is bobbin-led, but the aerodynamic design of the flyer allows you to spin with very little pull on the yarn. As a result, Dutch tension is great for spinning both thin and thick yarns.

Lojan BV was founded in 2023 by JanLout and his daughter, Loes van Aken.
