Ashford Spinning Wheels for SALE
Traditional & Country Spinner 1
ASHFORD TRADITIONAL $250:
Great shape, all parts there and functioning well, four bobbins total and bobbin holder. There is some water staining water on the bobbin holder/lazy kate but that is the only blemish on it. AVAILABLE Mar 29 in KELOWNA ONLY. (Or anytime in the Castlegar-Nelson area). Contact us for more information at beeglade@shaw.ca |
Ashford Country Spinner 1: $700 AVAILABLE Mar 29 in KELOWNA, BC ONLY. Or anytime in the Castlegar-Nelson, West Kootenay, BC area. Excellent condition. With the huge bobbins and a 1” orifice, bulky yarns can be easily spun on it, and smaller yarns too. Has a double treadle, and is in excellent shape, no nicks, dents etc. This and the extra bobbin and stand (lazy kate) are currently valued at about $1000 - $1100. Approximate measurements are 35” high x 18” x 16”. The wheel is full size 18”. This version has a slightly smaller footprint than the Country 2. One of the pic shows some of my plyed yarn with lots of room left on the bobbin: it is 625 yds. total and almost one pound! Plus, it has a sweet fox on it that the previous owner must have put on it. :) |
