Lockdown Spinning System

By  Danny Manning 2020
A wool spinning system constructed entirely from salvaged wood and recycled bicycle parts made during the midst of the CO-VID Crisis. During Lockdown I have been exploring natural dyes and this system is used to spin wool dyed samples into various yarns.
