You can see it next to my Schacht Matchless spinning wheel for a size comparison.
It is made by Jon McCoy and can been seen here. The wheel was originally made by Doug Dodd who retired after he lost his wife. Jon has continued the fine craftsmanship that engenders the cult-like following.
Jan purchased the cherry woolee winder package and she waited quite a long time for it. If you are interested in purchasing one, you need to submit a deposit and then go on the waiting list.
I decided that I will not be purchasing any new spinning wheels until I can spin on one for a while to get the feel of it. We shall see how this cute little wheel fares.
Princess Polly, my Pocket Wheel is cute as can be BUT she thinks she's royalty. Everything must be "perfect" or she throws a hizzy. She's spit her flyer off (while I've been spinning) more than once. OR she will refuse to allow me to remove her flyer. Once in awhile the screw holding her left treadle in place, falls off-------doesn't matter how tight I screw it on. BUT tempramental as she can be, I love her and she does spin wonderfully.
