Nordic Lady November 24, 2007
Reviewer: Susan Slater from Spokane, WA United States  
When my first Nordic spindle broke accidentally, I brought it in to mourn it. Bill said he could glue it together but it wouldn't spin the same. He was right - it spun better! Thank you for helping. (I bought a second Nordic Lady at the same time.)

Love it, love it, Love it! August 9, 2007
Reviewer: Heather B. from Houston, TX United States  
Bill advised me to get this for my "first" learn to spin spindle and I'm so glad I listened.  It's survived being chewed on by a cat, dropped a few times, and traveling in my knitting bag every day.  

It's a lot prettier than the photo, it's "art" by itself.   It's nice just to look at AND I was spinning yards at a time on my second attempt.  

Spinning's been a lot of fun and incredibly easy for me and I credit it to my spindle.  Thanks!  

PS - customer service rocks!  

Edit: Still love it, works great.  I bought the mini too, and it works just as well, if not better.  I was spinning great laceweight camel in a minute or two.  These are the best!
