Hopper

Introducing the SpinOlution Hopper Travel Wheel, a compact, lightweight option for spinners who value portability and creative freedom. Weighing just 13 pounds and folding down for easy packing, the Hopper is designed to travel effortlessly while supporting everything from lace to bulky yarns.

The Hopper has a distinctive treadling style that some spinners love immediately, which is why we recommend a test spin to ensure it’s the right fit for you. For the best experience, proper chair height and leg position are essential—a low chair with good lumbar support allows relaxed treadling.

SpinOlution wheels are made from the highest quality, warp-resistant Baltic birch plywood. Please note that occasional knots or patches may be present in plywood. These cosmetic variations do not affect performance or durability.
