Louet spinning wheels compared

  • Louet S17 (from €390): the most affordable Louet wheel. Supplied as an unlacquered kit with 3 bobbins, lazy kate and standard flyer, Irish tension.
  • Louet S10 Concept (from €648): the modular classic in 12 versions. Choose Scotch or Irish tension, single or double treadle and one of three drive wheels. The Fully Loaded set has everything included.
  • Louet Victoria S95 (from €800): the folding wheel. Folded it measures just 15 x 36 x 55 cm and weighs 3.6 kg, Scotch tension. Also available Fully Loaded.
  • Louet Jenn-E (from €913): Louet’s e-spinner with variable speed up to 820 rpm, switchable between Scotch and Irish tension.

Scotch tension or Irish tension?

With Irish tension the bobbin pulls in firmly, which suits thicker yarns. Scotch tension can be adjusted more finely and is nicer for thin yarns. The S10 Concept and the Jenn-E offer both.

Carding with Louet

Besides spinning wheels we stock the Louet drum carders Junior, Standard and XL, the electric drum carder, hand carders, mini combs and the blending board.
