121 Jersey Wheel
This was the first and simplest spinning wheel; introduced in the 14th century for spinning wool. It had a large wheel connected by a band to a small wheel which turned the spindle. The spindle was horizontal. The operator stood at the side and turned the large wheel with her right-hand, with her left-hand she drew out the thread which came twisting from the end of the spindle; when it was long enough she stopped and turning the wheel again wound it on the spindle. There was no place for the distaff and it was necessary to pick up new fibres constantly. See Saxony Wheel. -
