| The Kromski Symphony - just the image you would expect a spinning wheel to take. You can picture the "ladies in waiting" gathered together in the castle spinning as a group, all on The Symphony. | ||||
| This wheel has the details spinners have come to expect with Kromski products - lots of finely turned wood, attention to detail, and all the features spinners ask for. Start with a good size wheel diameter - 24" - that rotates on bearing sleeves that contribute to effortless treadling. The double treadles are well engineered to be comfortable through long spinning sessions. The flyer is double drive but also has Scotch tensioning for single drive use (at no additional charge). The bobbins will hold a full 4 oz. package of yarn and they fit on all the other Kromski wheels if you start a collection. |  |

A video also comes with this wheel showing how to assemble the Mazurka and a basic intro to spinning.
This wheel comes boxed as a kit and requires about an hour to
assemble. It is available unfinished or with a factory clear,
walnut or mahogany finish that is exceptional (see a sample of
