Another wheel? Um….blushes I’m afraid so. I know, I think it’s crazy, I’m crazy. It’s an addiction.
I brought a Lendrum, the one where you have to wait months and months, the one where there is a waiting list, the one where there is only one dealer in UK. Although I have to admit, I am very very lucky, ONE WEEK was all I had to wait. My heart goes out for those who had to wait 9 months for their wheel. It’s a terribly long time to wait for something. I’m sorry.
She spin’s wonderfully and smells divine. The maple wood gives off a beautiful scent. It’s becoming a habit to sniff her every so often. Holly joins me in our morning sniff, we’re mad! We then sniff the Suzi, it’s our new routine!
It doesn’t spin quite as smooth as my Suzi but she does spin well, quiet and smooth and damn sexy too!
She was my first love, the wheel I lusted after when I wanted a spinning wheel but wasn’t prepared for the long wait. Now I have her and my Suzi, my heart is content, very content. They are both beautifully made and a joy to spin.
Now I must have another sniff.

Do I have to plan a treatment for drug addiction??? ; )
I like the touch of the wood, so I imagine how joyful it can be!

OOHH…lovely!
I tell you, pretty wheels alone are enough to make me want to take up spinning.

Wow that is really nice, I thought about spinning but I think Mike would hang me with another interest…lol…How are you and kitty kat doing. My cats have to sniff my current knitting project and give their approval.

I really want a wheel. Just not enough money to buy one.
I really should learn from my drop spindle first ha ha.

Wow, she’s lovely!
I’ve always wanted to learn to spin, but you put a spin on spinning that makes me want a wheel more than chocolate. And believe me – that’a LOT of wanting on my part!
I fear your addiction is contagious! Not sure how much longer I can resist…..

only a little crazy 🙂 I love my lendrum – and I haven’t even thought to sniff it – I’ll be sure to check that out a bit more carefully! I just love her!

She is gorgeous! I’m not a spinner but I can appreciate a good fiber addiction!

Hurrah! A fully-fledged fibre obsession 🙂

Looks positively addictive!

Thats not crazy, a super spinner like you needs wonderful tools!

A new addiction! 😉 Enjoy the new toy!

Oh, so this is like the Rolls Royce of spinning wheels? The new wheel is awesome. 🙂 May you have lots of enjoyable hours spinning.

What an awesome purchase!!! Glad you like the new wheel!!
August 5th, 2009 at 5:26 pm
Wow! Two wheels! I love my Lendrum, too 🙂
August 9th, 2009 at 9:30 pm
OK, you can’t possibly spin on two wheels at once so I’ll just slip one under my coat and play with it, right? 😉

It happened – I couldn’t resist – this post was more tempting than chocolate. I’m a new Lendrum owner! I sniffed – the scent if beautiful. Thanks for presenting the temptation I couldn’t resist!!!
