Прялочка замечательная. Я бы хотела такую.

I’m helping my son with his English homework and the poem is about a spinning wheel. We have no idea how a spinning wheel works and what a flyer or a distaff or a quill is so that is why we are here. I gotta say, I like this lady. She seems sweet! She got me excited about the lil ladybug.. that IS a cute feature!

How does the yarn not snap as the wheel is spinning but you're not feeding it to the spindle I seen other videos where people are literally staying completely still with the wheel turning and it doesn't pull it free

[@crystaliwa8578]

there’s twist in the yarn that keeps it strong and taut, so it dosen’t break apart when you aren’t feeding it to the spindle!
