Hi, Spinners! Here’s an email from a friend who’s about to move and is looking for a new home for her Ashford Traditional spinning wheel. The Traditional is a little Saxony wheel, a real workhorse, and it has set the standard for “new” spinning wheels since the 1930’s, in continual production since that time. The least expensive new ones are over $500, so this could be a deal for someone. Give Deb a call if you’re interested.

Hi, Toni!
We are finally making our move out West and I must make use of my 512 sq. ft. house as much as possible . . . which means, my big wheel has to go. My husband got me a Traveller (although I'm having a devil of a time with it bending over since my spinal surgery). However, I don't have room to store the big wheel.
Do you know of anyone who wants a used wheel? I'll throw in a couple of bobbins, too.
I'm putting in my Downsizing Sale starting next week at $175 . . . do you think that's reasonable?
