Kromski Polonaise Spinning Wheel
Kromski Polonaise Spinning Wheel
Inspired by an ancient spinning wheel style, the Kromski Polonaise Spinning Wheel is a masterpiece in design, echoing the rich history of spinning in the Baltic and Scandinavian regions. Crafted with longevity in mind, this wheel captures the elegance of traditional Norwegian designs, presenting a stunning 24” drive wheel suspended by pin and socket bearings. Treadling becomes a virtually effortless experience, offering a wide range of speed and ratio options, making it an ideal choice for spinners of all levels of expertise.
What sets the Kromski Polonaise Spinning Wheel apart is not just its size and beauty but also the meticulous attention to detail. The wooden wheel adjustments and tension screws, fully functional, empower spinners to fine-tune the wheel’s angle and flyer alignment to their preference. Each Polonaise is a unique piece, reflecting exceptional craftsmanship and Kromski’s commitment to quality.
Moreover, the Polonaise extends its capabilities with the optional Jumbo Flyer kits. These kits open up new dimensions for spinners, allowing them to create anything from delicate lace-weight yarns to robust super bulky art yarns. The jumbo bobbin provided in the kit doubles the capacity of the regular Kromski bobbin, providing ample space for longer, continual drafts, resulting in skeins with greater yardage.
Beyond its functionality, the Polonaise is not just a spinning wheel; it’s destined to become a treasured heirloom. Its captivating appearance and dependable performance ensure it will be a focal point and a conversation piece for generations. Embrace the heritage of spinning with the Polonaise, a wheel that transcends time and tradition.
