Limited Edition Project Kits

Join us as we celebrate Local Yarn Shop Day with a new pattern available exclusively through your local yarn shop. (That's Us!) We have stocked five trendy colors of Noble Cotton yarn from Cascade.

The 2023 LYS Day Shawl designed by Shannon Dunbabin is a 4-skein lace shawl knit in Noble Cotton color #71 Spring Crocus, inspired by Pantone's color of the year– Viva Magenta. Spun from extra-long staple cotton, Noble Cotton is luxurious and soft. This DK-gauge mercerized cotton works up beautifully for garments and accessories and is available in over 75 solids, including fluorescent neons, as well as new Hand Dyed, and Tie Dyed color ways.

The mill in India that produces Noble Cotton practices sustainability and environmental stewardship by the recycling of the wastewater in a closed system, with the result of zero water discharge. Water recycling is achieved by a variety of methods including reverse osmosis and nano filtration. The zero-liquid discharge recycling saves over 90 million gallons (350 million liters) of water per year. Best of all, since the recycled water is essentially distilled, the pure soft water provides the foundation for superior dying with consistent and clear colors. The 2023 LYS Day Shawl can also be knit in Ultra Pima.

• Printed Copy of "2023 LYS Day Shawl" by Shannon Dunbabin

Melissa! Can you hear me jumping up and down? I'm so excited to launch this fabulous kit for the Marie Shawl made with Herriot Great that knits like butter!

Back by popular demand, Schacht is making a limited run for winter 2025 of the classic Ladybug Spinning Wheel in cherry! Gorgeous cherry wood is complemented by a sleek black drive wheel. This wheel is a limited edition and available while supplies last. Please contact us with any questions.

Like the maple Ladybug, the Cherry Ladybug has characteristic solid Schacht construction and its unique design is both functional and charming.

Each Ladybug wheel is unique—somewhere on your wheel is your very own ladybug pal. The Ladybug can be used in Scotch tension, Irish tension, and double drive modes. Designed-in carrying handles in the legs and light weight make the Ladybug convenient to pick up and transport. Included with each wheel are a poly drive band, threading hook, three travel bobbins, medium and fast whorls, and double drive band. Each wheel comes with one of our signature ladybug enamel pins.

The Ladybug Spinning Wheel is friendly to entry-level spinners, easy to treadle, easy to take with you, and…as cute as a bug! The Ladybug has the characteristic solid Schacht construction and its unique design is both functional and charming. Designed-in carrying handles in the legs and light weight make the Ladybug easy to pick up and transport. An optional attached tensioned Lazy Kate integrates into the front leg and makes it easy to take along, too!

Optional accessories sold separately. Please contact Josh directly with any questions about purchasing a spinning wheel. We are able to offer Schacht's full line of spinning wheels and equipment by special order, in addition to what we have in stock.

The Ladybug is one of Schacht's most popular wheels and we will be doing our best to keep one in stock.  We usually have one Ladybug in stock, boxed, and ready to ship. We also have one on display in the studio to try out. We do allow this wheel to oversell. In the event that the wheel is not in stock, it will ship directly to you from Schacht.

Please contact us by phone, in person, or email for any questions you have about purchasing a wheel. We encourage you stop by the studio and take the Ladybug for a test spin, as well as the other wheels we carry from Schacht!
