Features:
This wheel is very stable and a great choice for Features a built in lazy kate so you can leave your bobbins on it while it's in the carry bag which is a very convenient feature. The tension is easy to adjust and bobbins are easy to change. The ratios on this wheel will go fast enough to spin cotton. I should add Rachel here at the shop is spinning a skein of stretched merino (Optim) fiber and creating an absolutely magical skein of lace weight yarn. She personally prefers to use either our Lendrum here at the shop or the Joy depending on her mood and yarn she's trying to spin.  You may want to check out the other portable wheels we offer here at the shop including the Lendrum Spinning Wheel, Victoria Spinning Wheel & the Kromski Sonata Spinning Wheel.

Ashford Joy is a Joy to Work! June 10, 2008
Reviewer: Anonymous person from Coralville, IA United States  
My dear husband gave me the Ashford Joy (single treadle) as a Christmas gift two years ago.  I had never spun before, but learning on this wheel was a breeze (okay, after 2 hours of stern concentration and furrowed eyebrows).  The design is well thought out, compact, and extremely easy to pop in the car, carry to meeting with friends or on vacation, or even just move around the house to be wherever the family is gathered.  I have been able to spin bulky to laceweight yarn beautifully on this wheel, for it has four drive ratios.  The bobbin size is perfect for me, creating about a 1 oz. skein of yarn when double plied.  I would suggest the Joy to any spinner who likes the convenience of a compact, easy to transport design, as well as flexibility in the ability to create yarns of most thicknesses.
