The benefits of the Kiwi 3 are endless with add-on kits available that allow you to adapt the wheel to spin different types of yarn. It is a single drive castle style wheel weighing only 12 lbs is wonderful for learning the basics of spinning wool and other fibers. It features new hinged treadles for smoother action than the previous Kiwi.
