I am so excited to finally have my own spinning wheel. My friend Susan gifted me this Ashford Traditional spinning wheel a couple days ago. It just needs a few minor repairs and then I can begin spinning. I've been spinning wool for several years on a top whorl drop spindle but it has always been my goal to learn the wheel. Wheels are quite spendy and they look kind of complicated so I've never purchased one. Now I have my own and can't wait to make the repairs and get spinning.
Today I'll be ordering the pieces I need to get it up and running and I'll make sure to share my progress.
