A tremendous achievement for a pupil who first lesson took place just three weeks ago. She has also made a felted fox who looks very cosy hiding beneath the rosette. She chose an Ashford Joy wheel that folds up  into a strong secure bag suitable for air freight, so that she can take it back to Japan when she returns. I am hopeful that Japan will soon have its first Long Draw Spinning teacher.
