د.إ85.33
Optimize your wheel’s performance with the Ashford Double Drive 3-Speed Whorl. This essential accessory provides three unique pulley diameters, allowing you to instantly adjust your spinning ratios to match your fiber choice. Precision-crafted in Natural New Zealand Silver Beech, it is designed for seamless compatibility with the Traditional, Traveller, Elizabeth 2, and specialized Joy wheels, ensuring a smooth, vibration-free spin at every speed.
The “Gearbox” of Your Spinning Wheel
In 2026, versatility is the hallmark of a master spinner. Think of this whorl as the gearbox of your wheel. By changing which groove the drive band sits in, you change how many times the flyer rotates for every single push of the treadle. This 3-speed version offers a broader range than the standard 2-speed models, making it the perfect upgrade for those who find themselves frequently switching between different wool breeds or plying styles.
Compatibility & Precision
This whorl is a “cross-platform” powerhouse. It is engineered to fit a wide array of Ashford’s most popular models (coded in the 2026 catalog as TVDTD, DDSW, KSW2, KSW3, and ESW2). Whether you are maintaining a vintage Traditional or upgrading a brand-new Elizabeth 2, the inner bore is machined to exact tolerances to prevent “wobble” at high RPMs.
Why Three Speeds?
The largest groove (Slow) is perfect for plying or spinning bulky yarns where you want less twist. The middle groove (Standard) handles your everyday DK and Worsted weights. The smallest groove (High Speed) is the “turbo” setting, ideal for fine merino, silk, or cotton where high twist-density is required. Because it is Natural (Unfinished), it will develop a beautiful patina over time or can be waxed to match your existing wheel.
