I am now the proud owner of a Kromski Symphony spinning wheel. Doesn't it look like it came straight out of a Fairy Tale? Phil asked if I am going to spin gold on it! It looks gorgeous in our living room, but it is easy enough to move it into the family room if I want company while spinning and it is whisper quiet!
It spins quite differently than Alison's Traveller that I have been using up until now and it will take a little getting used to, but who cares - more spinning for me! By the way Allison, you are 100% responsible for me getting bitten by the spinning bug and therefore I blame/thank you for this purchase.
The wool that came with the wheel is harder to draft than anything I have worked with before (not that I have experience with a lot of different wool), but it is getting easier the more I spin. It is true what they say - Practice makes perfect!
