Kromski Minstrel Spinning Wheel

The Kromski Minstrel is a quintessential Castle-style spinning wheel. While many modern wheels adopt the Castle design—where the flyer, orifice, and mother of all sit directly above the drive wheel in a tall, castle-like arrangement—the Minstrel stands out. It merges the compactness of contemporary designs with the Olde World elegance Kromski is renowned for. Discover the Minstrel Spinning Wheel With its 18” diameter wheel, the Minstrel offers the impact of a full-size wheel without occupying as much space. The direct alignment of the orifice with the wheel and treadles makes spinning more comfortable for many enthusiasts compared to offset designs. The Minstrel boasts intricate, handcrafted wood turnings and is a double treadle wheel. You can adjust it for either double drive mode or single drive mode with Scotch tension. For those spinning longer staple-length fibers like flax or hemp, an optional distaff can be attached with ease. Bring home this multifunctional yet charming wheel
