The Joy is the solution to portable spinning. You can take this wheel with you wherever you go! The revolutionary design is ultra light weight and folds up to fit inside a carry bag.
We have heard stories of spinners taking this wheel all over the world, on a boat, on a plane, a train or in a caravan!
It has scotch tension and four flyer ratios for fine to chunky novelty yarns.
The bobbins fit into the frame and the treadle folds flat.
The Joy comes to you assembled, lacquered and ready to go. Made from strong furniture grade
plywood, with sealed ball bearings.
"And why the name? Named after Joy Ashford who with her husband Walter brought spinning wheels to the world... and because it is such a Joy to use!"
