Description

Thoroughly modern in every aspect, but the concept and design are obviously Kromski, The Fantasia Spinning wheel is a great wheel.

What is not obvious is a new-style single drive flyer design. The whorl is “changeable” for different speeds; to change bobbins, the front of the flyer simply pulls off – no drive band to deal with. Very fast bobbin change. The flyer also has sliding hooks. And both the flyer and the wheel spin on sealed ball bearings for a truly smooth feel. Optional Jumbo Flyer also available.

The Fantasia Spinning Wheel is made of European alder and available in several wood and color combinations.
