Anita,
I have a couple of lightweight spindles, about 1/2 oz, that  are good
for spinning silk and other fibres.

They are called "Lizzie" spindles and are made by Adam Mielke.  I got
them from their Web site. http://www.mielkesfarm.com  Last I checked they
were out of stock, but that may have changed.

They are smaller than other spindles but larger and easier to use than a
tahkli, at least for my hands.

Hoope this helps.

I'm wanting a new challenge and thought to order the book "Spinning Silk on a Top Whorl Spindle" but am wondering if that book advises a particular weight of spindle? Can anyone tell me? TIA Anita in sunny, cool NH, USA
