Carding and combing are pre-spinning treatments to align the fibers which enables you to spin fibers more easily. For the technique of felting or making woolen blankets, carding is essential. Combing straightens the fibers more than carding. This difference determines the character of the spun thread: worsted or woolen-spun.
These handy tools are a unique device which can be used for de-hairing and fine fiber combing. After combing, the fiber can be pulled into a sliver or spun straight from the comb. These combs are made of ash with a lacquer finish. In order to ensure a long life, the teeth on all Louet carders are made of high grade plated steel wire. As a safety precaution, all Louet combs are machined so they are not razor sharp. Our mini combs are easy on your wrists as they are lightweight.

"I’ve used these combs on two types of wool since buying them. They do a terrific job on fine or lamb fleece. Easy on the hands and wrists. Good handles for my medium sized hands. And I can spin directly from them as I go. I love them."
"Very small and light wait. Very good for combing out really fine hair. Really well built. Teeth are in plastic so no stretching of the wood to nail when working with the comb'a."
"I love my new Loet mini combs! I am doing a fine Cormo lambs will and nothing else worked until these combs. Thank you!"
"I ordered the Mini Combs in order to clean up a very dirty Babydoll Southdown fleece. Being Louet I was not surprised by the high quality of the combs. They are doing the job admirably. Have combed several ounces and made a sample bat on my Louet drum carder. These are just the tool I needed to make this fleece usable."
