New Spinning Tool: Thumb Flick

Thumb flick

This past weekend I taught at Susan’s Fiber Shop Spinning Retreat, it was great fun!

At one point in the festivities Susan whipped out this cool little tool – a thumb flick.

It’s exactly what it sounds like, a tiny flick that slips over your thumb to use to tease open locks. I used it to flick open locks for blending board batts, and it worked perfectly.

It’s tiny and light and costs about $10, what’s not to love?

I haven’t seen them anywhere else, and Susan just got them in. If you want one the quickest way is to call her shop.

 

 

 

 

Here’s Susan demonstrating her flick:
