The Prelude Spinning Wheel is Kromski's smallest single-drive Saxony wheel, with an 18" diameter for compact portability in the outstanding craftmanship of the antique Saxony style. Easy assembly and a multitude of attributes make this perfect for both beginners and lifetime use. This multi-speed/ratio wheel features Scotch Tension and is available in unfinished, finished clear, walnut, and mahogany. Your wheel includes a Built-In Lazy Kate (two bobbin capacity), 3 bobbins, Spinning Wheel Oil, Wrench, and a Threading Hook.
Jumbo Flyer kits are available to upgrade your Prelude. These expand the spinners range in two ways. First, the type of yarn created can vary from lace-weight to super bulky art yarn because of the larger orifice on the jumbo flyer. Subsequently, the jumbo bobbin allows spinners twice the capacity of the regular Kromski bobbin. A regular Kromski bobbin already offers 50% greater space than most standard bobbins in the industry with a generous 4.2 ounce capacity. Jumbo bobbins double that, essentially allowing you to spin two regular bobbins worth without a bobbin change! This means longer, continual drafts for skeins with greater yardage.
