After long anticipation, shuttles and pirns from Pilkingtons Ltd. in Lancashire, England have arrived! Pilkingtons has been making textile accesory equipment since 1830 and know a thing or two about shuttle manufacturing.
 
These black fiberglass reinforced nylon pirns are comparable to the large AVL pirn, but are formed with less flare at the end requiring careful winding of weft.

Length: 8"
Weight of pirn: 1 ounce, or 29 grams
