La VischYesterday, I showed you the shadow of my spinning wheel. This is the wheel (and the spider plants!) 😃
FanCityKnits 🇺🇦🧶Is this an Elizabeth?
I got the chance to sound on one many years ago (got even a few tips from Mr Ashford about it - he was present at a spinning convention where this all happened). Wonderful wheel, but she's a big girl.
@FanCityKnits No it isn’t. This wheel was handmade by the grandfather of an acquaintance: Wim Vogel. He was a carpenter and made in the 70’s two spinning wheels in his spare time for his 2 daughters, based on plans by the Norske Husflidsforening. Noortje is one of those two wheels 😃
@LaVisch oh wow, this is a wonderful story and a very special wheel.
