Kromski Symphony - Downsizing my life and need to let her go. She is very sensitive to fine tuning, with a wide range of ratios -- from delicate lace-weight to worsted/aran/bulky weight handspun yarns. Long-draw is a delight on this wheel - very peaceful and relaxing and super fast with the 24” wheel.
Asking $550 Would prefer NOT to ship this wheel. Willing to meet somewhere not too far from Kentucky. PM me.
Purchased 4/15/2015 from Kyfarmgirl (destash). Minor damage to finish on the left treadle - marking from previous owner’s puppy. Well balanced, and in perfect working order.
- European alder and birch. Clear finish.
- Double drive (current setup) or Scotch tension for single drive use
- Bobbins hold a full 4 oz. of fiber (compatible with other Kromski wheels)
- No plastic parts, consistent with hand turned wheels of the past - perfect for historical re-enactors
