HARRISVILLE DESIGNS SHUTTLES

Boat Shuttles and Hardwood Bobbins, Rag Rug Shuttle, Ski Shuttle, Stick Shutttles

Boat Shuttles & Hardwood Bobbins

Two boat shuttles: The regular 12" boat shuttle, and the 9" “Shuttlette”. Both accept the 4" hardwood bobbins. The shuttles are made of hardwood and are finely sanded and finished. A spring operated shaft holds a bobbin securely yet releases easily for quick, convenient reloading. It is recommended that you use the regular shuttle for general weaving and the “Shuttlette” for narrow warps.

Hardwood bobbins: 4" in length and are turned from solid birch. Although they are designed especially for use with the boat shuttles and bobbin winders, they will fit most other shuttles and bobbin winders quite neatly.

Rag Rug Shuttle: A practical shuttle for thick weft yarns or rag strips, the rag rug shuttle is designed to hold the maximum amount of yarn for rug weaving. Made of maple, it is available in 16" and 24" lengths.

Ski Shuttle: The perfect shuttle for extra heavy weft yarns, or rug rags, the ski shuttle is designed so that you can wind yarn around it or in a figure 8 pattern. The curved design prevents the shuttle from catching warp ends as you weave. The overall length of the ski shuttle is 21" and the height is 1-1/2".

Stick Shuttles: Ideal for simple weaving projects, the stick shuttles come in six convenient lengths - 6", 9", 12", 16", 20" and 24". They are made of solid rock maple.
