Louet "Flicker" Carder

The flicker is a compact and practical tool used to open up fibre locks and prepare them for spinning.

Specifications:

• Size: 6 × 10 cm (2 3/8″ × 4″)

• Cloth density: 72 TPI

What is TPI?
TPI stands for Teeth Per Inch—a measure of how densely packed the teeth are on the carding cloth.

• Higher TPI (more teeth) is ideal for finer fibres, providing smoother results.

• Lower TPI (fewer teeth) works better for coarser or bulkier fibres.

This flicker’s 72 TPI makes it a versatile choice for a range of fibre types.
