DizUpdated 6 months ago

A diz is a small tool with a hole that’s used in fiber preparation, especially in combing. After combing, you pull the fibers through the hole in the diz, which aligns them into a smooth, continuous roving. Dizzing creates a combed fiber preparation, ideal for worsted spinning and producing smooth, strong yarn.

Fun Fact: You can make a simple diz out of household items like buttons or seashells—anything with a small, smooth hole will do the trick!
