Schacht Spindle Co

American-made looms and tools from a company that values craftsmanship, sustainability, and inclusivity—Schacht has been weaving community since 1969.

Founded in 1969 in Boulder, Colorado, Schacht Spindle Company has become a beloved name in the world of fiber arts, known for its beautifully crafted looms and spinning tools. From the portable Zoom Loom to the versatile Cricket rigid heddle looms, Schacht products are designed with intention—for both beginner weavers and lifelong makers.

But what truly sets Schacht apart is their heart. As a value-driven company, Schacht prioritizes sustainability, using responsibly sourced North American hardwoods and hand-rubbed finishes free of ozone-damaging agents. Their factory runs on energy-efficient systems and a robust composting and recycling program. Each Friday, scrap wood is shared freely with the local community.

Equally inspiring is Schacht’s commitment to diversity and inclusion. With employees of all ages, backgrounds, and identities—including women in leadership roles—they’ve created a workplace culture that reflects the creativity and care found in every one of their tools.

At The Yarny Way, we’re proud to carry looms and tools that support not just your craft, but your values, too.
