When
people think of spinning wheels, they usually envision a big, beautiful
Saxony style wheel. The Saxony style wheels were the first spinning
wheels in history that added a treadle in order to free both hands of
the spinner. Since their inception, they have been the wheel of
fairytales and therefore, are often referred to as “Cinderella” wheels.
The Kromski Symphony exemplifies the classical style of these wheel
types!
It is the largest, in our line of Saxony
wheels, with a diameter of 24” and an orifice height of 27”. The
Symphony definitely commands the attention of the room with it’s
definitive sloping bench and grand sprawl measuring 43” wide. Although
capacious, the weight of this wheel is quite conservative at only 15
pounds.
Look below prices for a list of specifications.
It is a double treadle wheel that can be
operated in either single drive mode with Scotch Tension or in double
drive mode, without. An independent, tensioned, arched lazy kate is
INCLUDED with this wheel. The observable turnings of the Symphony wheel,
posts and legs alone display the distinctive Kromski craftsmanship but
the meticulous artistry in the functional components of the
mother-of-all amplify this wheel as a timeless beauty.
Jumbo Flyer kits expand the spinners range in two ways. First, the
type of yarn created can vary from lace-weight to super bulky art yarn
because of the larger orifice on the jumbo flyer. Subsequently, the
jumbo bobbin allows spinners twice the capacity of the regular Kromski
bobbin. A regular Kromski bobbin already offers 50% greater space than
most standard bobbins in the industry with a generous 4.2 ounce
capacity. Jumbo bobbins double that, essentially allowing you to spin
two regular bobbins worth without a bobbin change!! This means longer,
continual drafts for skeins with greater yardage.
