Used Country Spinner
bulky spinner
This is probably an Indian Valley Spinner by Tom Ricci -- check if there is a Ricci cast into the large iron wheel. It's a powerhouse of a wheel -- great for rug yarn.
Used Gilmore 4 Shaft 40
40 inch, 4 shaft Gilmore floor loom with bench
I bought one just like this several years ago from ETC. It is a gem. I love it. It's versatile and solid. You can weave fine linens or rugs on this sturdy, dependable loom.
Used Gilmore 4 Shaft 40
4 shaft 40 inch Gilmore
I bought a loom identical to this one about 4 years ago from ETC. I love this loom. It is sturdy and very versatile. I've woven fine pieces (20/2 cotton) as well as a wool rug on this loom with equal success. Highly recommended.
Used Norwegian Double Treadle Wheel of Unknown Origin
Spinning wheel makers
This wheel is identical to a wheel I once owned. The makers were Sid Sharples and Jack Daniels. Sid Sharples also made bulky flyer wheels. Their names and information should be under the main table. Also one of the finials near the wheel hub may be a hidden threading hook.
(ETC: Thank you for the info! We've updated the description)

Suzie, Vickie and the folks at the Eugene Textile Center are amazing!
The staff is extremely helpful, friendly and well knowledge about anything and everything regarding textiles.
Lichen Dyeing Class with Cheshire
Lichen Dyeing Class
This class is a combination of hands-on-learning and a generous overview of lichen biology, identification, and technique to extract an amazing variety of colors from dried up bits. Very knowledgeable teacher, great handouts, and good classroom space. You go home with two scarves you've created yourself, color yarn samples of eight different lichen dyes, and lots of low cost ideas for dyeing at home using lichens.

I have purchased items online and also visited the store in person. They carry a great variety of equipment, tools and fibers, but what really sets them apart is fabulous customer service. The folks at Eugene Textile Center provide personalized service and are very knowledgeable. They are friendly and make shopping a pleasure. Eugene Textile Center has exceeded my expectations on several occasions and I highly recommend this company.
