PRE-ORDER! Gobelin-Style Tapestry Bobbins | Schacht

Smooth, balanced, and thoughtfully shaped, Schacht’s Gobelin-style Tapestry Bobbins are designed for controlled, precise weft handling in tapestry weaving. Crafted from durable hardwood and finished to a silky smoothness, these bobbins feel comfortable in the hand and glide easily between warp threads.

The gently tapered, pointed tip allows for accurate placement of weft in detailed areas, making them especially useful for colour changes and fine pattern work. Their balanced weight helps maintain even tension while weaving, supporting clean edges and consistent build in the cloth.

Available individually or in a convenient pack of three, these bobbins are an essential tool for tapestry weavers seeking both control and craftsmanship.
