Is the Ashford Joy Spinning Essentials Bundle suitable for beginners?
Yes, this bundle is thoughtfully designed for those new to spinning. It includes everything you need to make learning enjoyable and stress-free.
Does the Ashford Joy 2 Spinning Wheel make spinning easier for beginners?
Definitely. The double treadle design offers smooth and balanced treadling, giving you excellent control as you build your spinning skills and confidence.
What fibre preparation tools come with this bundle?
The bundle includes an Ashford Blending Board (with brush and dowels), a Diz Stick, and a Yarn Gauge, ideal for preparing and blending fibres before spinning.
How can I stop over-twisting my yarn while spinning?
You can control twist by slowing your treadling, using a larger whorl, tightening the brake slightly, or improving your drafting speed to balance the twist and draw.
Can I create fine yarns using the Joy 2 Spinning Wheel?
Yes. The Joy 2 is versatile enough for both beginners and advanced spinners. To achieve fine yarns, draft out smaller quantities of fibre and use a higher speed (ratio and/or treadling speed).
Is this spinning wheel easy to take to workshops or classes?
Absolutely. The Ashford Joy 2 Spinning Wheel is lightweight and compact, and it comes with a padded carry bag, making it simple to transport wherever inspiration strikes.
Will the original Joy bobbins work with the sliding hook flyer on the Joy 2?
Yes, the original Joy bobbins are fully compatible with the sliding hook flyer, so you can use your existing bobbins with ease.
How does this bundle offer better value than buying items separately?
By purchasing the complete bundle, you save 10% and receive a thoughtfully curated set of essentials, so you can start spinning and blending without needing to buy extra tools.
What fibre types can I use with the included Blending Board?
The Blending Board works beautifully with a range of fibres, from soft wools to silks, allowing you to mix and create custom blends for your spinning projects.
Does the wheel require much maintenance?
Not at all. The Joy 2 features maintenance-free ball bearings in the main drive wheel and the bundle includes a maintenance kit to keep your wheel running smoothly with minimal effort.
