Lazy Kates
A lazy kate is an essential spinning accessory for plying yarn. It keeps your bobbins securely in place and helps control yarn tension, making it easier to produce smooth, balanced, and consistent plied yarns.
Several types of lazy kates are available:
-
Simple lazy kates – hold two or three bobbins, compact and practical.
-
Tensioned lazy kates – equipped with a brake to provide constant tension for greater precision.
-
Built-in lazy kates – integrated into certain spinning wheel models.
At Tisse et File, we offer a curated selection of lazy kates compatible with major spinning wheel brands such as Ashford, Louët, Kromski, Lojan, and Schacht. Whether you spin with standard or jumbo bobbins, these tools make plying easier and more reliable.
