While I work on my lace knitting research, I happened to become the next owner of this lovely walking “great” wheel. The flyer, spindle, and miners head are not in the picture. Those pieces need a bit of refurbishing to make this wheel work.
More on it later….
Hi, I’m Sherrill, The 1764 Shepherdess.
I’m a maker based in the Pacific Northwest. With a love of wool, I have hosted spinning and fiber events and now find myself writing to encourage makers to slow down, work with intention, and reconnect with the history of crafting by hand. I look forward to having you join me on this journey!
