	Which whorl do I choose? It depends. . .on your treadling rate, the fiber you're spinning, and the type of yarn you want. There are no hard and fast rules abut whorls. What is important is that you choose a whorl that helps your wheel do as much of the work =for you as possible. In general; the bigger the whorl, the coarser the fiber, the thicker the yarn; the smaller the whorl, the finer the fiber, the smaller the yarn.
