Dear Marloes, 
I am willing to bet these are some kind of wool thread knitting spools (or knitting nancy). Today, they are mostly four pronged. 

Best, 
Alice

Hi everyone, 

I hope that you are all doing well! 

I have a question about these 'three-pronged tools'. This one is incomplete, but originally had three pronges as well. Use wear analysis shows that these objects were used in wool working. They are usually made of cattle metcarpals and are dated between in the Netherlands between the 9th and 13th century AD. 

I am looking for parallells abroad. Has anyone seen such tools? 

Best wishes, 
Marloes
