Description
**Wooltober promotion! FREE 16 oz. bag of Kromski Standard Wool and Medium Niddy Noddy in black or orange. ***
The Minstrel spinning wheel from the Kromskis of Poland sets new standards for castle style wheels. It features a wide, steady base for the double treadle operation and the wheel, which is larger than many upright wheels – 18″ – is easy to mount on the two support posts. The third post will mount an optional distaff.
Larger than the Kromski Mazurka, the Minstrel has stronger, bolder lines and a larger base to accommodate the larger wheel diameter and the double treadles. It is a double drive wheel but comes standard with Scotch tension set-up if you prefer the single drive feel. A threading hook and extra whorl are conveniently stored up front for easy access.
The Minstrel is made of European alder and birch. Easy to assemble.
