A story that needs no words..........
New fashioned wheels
Old fashioned way to spin - true evidence of first civilizations - they had spindles - some only as simple as a well shaped rock and a really good stick. With the string they made they could make rope, thread to tie together animal skins for clothing or shelter.
This is going to make one pretty pair of socks.
Denise's new wheel is an antique she purchased this past week. Isn't it a beauty? With a few modifications she has planned, she will have a really nice wheel.
Guess what I'm going to do?

So, it sounds like you haven't decided on a wheel yet? Too many choices?
You had my wheel, the Lendrum, so I feel vindicated. Love my wheel - just wish it were pretty like some of the other ones.
No time to comment ~ I'm gonna go SPIN!
I love the pic of all the wheels. One of these days I will talk about mine again. I do love my Lendrum
So, which one is the Lendrum???? T.
I'll bet I know! ;-)
The Lendrum is right below the picture of the drop spindle in action. The Lendrum's spinner is wearing a red shirt and a skirt(?)
