This antique primitive wooden niddy noddy has a rich warm patina created by many years of use, and is an essential piece of hand spinning tools used for winding yarn into skeins. Long strands of wool yarn would be wound over and over the cross bars until a skein of yarn was twice its length. This antique niddy noddy is a bit larger measuring 19 1/2" in length, winding a skein that is a bit longer than one yard in length.
The cross bars are held in place by wooden pegs and are connected by a turned center piece. One of the tips of the cross bars is pointed which enables the yarn to slid off easily. The other tip ends are squared and measure 14" long. The niddy noddy is in original antique buy condition, with wear from age and use.
A wonderful antique wooden primitive spinning tool which can still be used to create skeins of yarn or to accent a country or rustic decor. A nice addition to a primitive collection!
