New Spinning Wheel
January 21st, 2007 by Matt
Our ashford spinning wheel was not working correctly and my wife and I have tried to fix it. First she tried to glue the spokes but that did not work. Then we took the wheel to Carolina Home Spun and she let us take apart one of her wheels and try a new wheel in our wheel. This still did not help so we bought a new wheel a Lendrum Folding Wheel
I really like the new wheel its SOO much more fun and a lot easer to use I do not have to fight the wheel at all it just works
I have Lendrum envy! I got my Babe this past summer without trying it out, and I’ve been pretty happy with it - it was cheap, and it spins pretty well - but I had the opportunity to spin on a Lendrum in October and it was fantastic. It’s the wheel I’d like to get whenever I get around to upgrading from my Babe.
I also have a Lendrum and love it. I purchased it fo rmy duaghter, she took one lesson, spun fora about a month and the wheel just set there. I finally asked a friend to teach me.
I know you will love your wheel. I wish I could stop spinning one size yarn.
