<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Modernly called a "drop spindle", a whorler (in period) simply consisted of a pointed, straight shaft (the spindle) inserted into a disk (the whorl).<br />
<br />
Generally the whorl was near the bottom of the shaft, but there are "high-whorl" techniques, where the whorl is actually at the "top" end of the shaft, with the spun thread wound around the shaft underneath it.<br />
<br />
This is much in contrast with a modern drop spindle which tend to also have a hook at the top end of the shaft - the thread is actually looped over this hook to help keep the holding loop from slipping off the spindle during spinning.<br />
<br />
Also, methods of winding the thread onto the spindle seem to have evolved over time - early spindles all seem to have the thread wound "evenly" up the spindle - so that the lump of wound thread becomes "cigar-shaped". Modern drop-spindle techniques generally have the thread wound near the bottom (actually resting upon the whorl) and the thread forms a general cone-shape.<br />
<br />
Period paintings of spinners often show the spindle being held by the right hand, with a [[distaff]] held under the left arm. In this way, the spinner was able to feed the fibre into the spindle between the two hands.</div>Taryn
