Cascade Mt. Pilchuck Drop Spindle
I recently added this spindle to my collection and I am so pleased with its performance. The spindle is actually dished out on the underside of the whorl which places the weight around the outer rim. This spindle will spin for days. It is still light enough to do fine yarn on but heavy enough to keep a really nice spin going. I must say I was really surprised by this spindle. I have to admit that before I spin on it I thought it was pretty but didn't think it had anything particularly cutting edge about it but I'm pleased to say I was way off. This spindle is wonderfully balanced and designed and is of impeccable quality which is everything I have come to expect from Cascade Spindles.

This is the spindle you've been awaiting to spin designer yarns and also the ultimate plying spindle. Engineered for an easily-controlled, fast, long and consistent spin. Maple, rim-weighted, long shaft, weight under 1-7/8 oz.

At 5,340 ft., it is located only a 90 minute drive from Seattle. Save Mount Pilchuck for a  clear day, because the views of the Olympics and the Cascades from the old fire lookout on  top are the stuff of dreams. This is one of the few short trails in the region that reaches  the summit of a major peak. Pilchuck was first climbed in 1897 by topographers; by 1918 the U.S.  Forest Service had established a rough trail to the summit. In 1991 the first lookout house was  completed and most recently renovated. You may feel like you're in a fairy tale as the trail winds  through a giant's garden of boulders, flowers and rivulets.
