New Spinning Wheel!

After only a few months of spinning, my teacher has recommended that I start to teach in my own right. Of course I was flattered, but also a little nervous. To encourage this, she gave me information on a used spinning wheel and accessories for about $200. How could I pass this opportunity up? What I got was this:




A loverly Ashford Traditional spinning wheel in near mint condition. No large marks, no malfunctioning parts. Just pure, simple spinning bliss.... In any case, I now own two pretty wheels and am ready to go crazy with spinning. The colorways are swirling in my head and I can't wait to get them out of my head and onto the bobbin!

    Yeah, I like it a lot. It needs a little cleaning, some tightening and a new drive band, but it'll be fine when I fix it all up... :)

    I have one just like it! (I found you through Cameron's blog) Mine's a little older, but I love it so much! The Ashford Maintenance kit runs about $20 with shipping, and has everything you need to make it amazing! Good luck!
