For Sale: my very first spinning wheel!

June 10, 2010

Hello, fiber friends!

Long time, no post! Erin and I were at the Tennessee Fiber Festival 2 weekends ago, and I met the new spinning wheel love of my life. The Spinoluti0n Mach II. Yes! As you well know, I’m a lover of antique wheels, and I find it endless amusing that I now want to get a wheel that looks like a spaceship! Anyway, to afford such a wheel, I have to thin the herd a little. Don’t worry: Don Cherry isn’t going anywhere. It’s my Kromski! The first wheel I ever had! I’m a little sentimental about all of this, but people grow and want new things. Oh man, I feel like we’re breaking up! We kind of are! Sad!

Anyway, here’s the ad which I posted on Ravelry:

I am selling a Kromski Symphony which I purchased in 2007. The wheel spins beautifully. I’m just smitten with another wheel, is all. :)

I’m going to start by offering it up as local pick up only. I live in Nashville, TN and am asking $475. However, I will probably go out and get a box this weekend along with packing supplies in case someone outside of driving range is interested.

Here are the details:

1 Kromski Symphony with a custom finish

Includes:

5 bobbins (one of them is unfinished, and coincidentally not pictured)
2 whorls
1 orifice hook
1 tensioned lazy kate (the springs have gone a bit loose on them, but this can probably be fixed easily. I can still ply without a problem)

Please let me know if you have any questions, would like more pictures, etc. I’d prefer payment by Paypal. Thanks so much!

How does that sound? I love this wheel, but I already have 1 saxony and want to find one that is a bit more portable.  Wish me luck!
