My birthday is not till the 29th but Pacific Wool & Fiber was having a sale that ended in June on their Kromski Sonatos,I got the wheel in walnut,the 3 bobbins ,another jumbo drive with a bobbin,& the carry bag for it.The bundled package was $625.I thought that was a bargin for all of that.
I assumed since it was a carry along wheel that folds up & goes in the bag with you,that it would be small,like my Ashford Joy.It`s not,really.The Joy fits me perfectly,but with my small frame I find myself grabbing a pillow to sit on & I still can`t see over the Sonato to tell when to move the fiber.It is adjustable,but I think it`s adjusted all it can be.I also have to use more of my hip muscles treadling.I`ve broken the cotton tension string twice.
At any rate,I do like it.I will get used to it.It`s nice having 2 wheels to work on.Happy Birthday to me...
