Kromski Interlude Spinning Wheel – Saxony Single Treadle Wheel

Free UK Shipping

The Kromski Interlude is a classic saxony-style spinning wheel with a graceful, traditional profile and a smooth, modern spinning feel. If you love the look of a storybook wheel but prefer a single treadle and a slightly larger drive wheel, the Interlude might be your perfect match.

With its 55 cm wheel diameter, the Interlude gives you more spinning power and ratio options for today’s fibres and yarns, while still keeping that elegant, old-world silhouette Kromski is so loved for. It’s a favourite among historical reenactors, demonstrators and anyone who prefers the rhythm and feel of a single treadle under one foot.

Free UK shipping is included, and I always price match – just let me know if you see a better deal.

Why You’ll Love the Kromski Interlude

• Traditional saxony style
  Long, low, storybook frame with beautifully turned details and classic Kromski craftsmanship – it looks stunning in any room or at any event.

• Single treadle simplicity
  Perfect if you prefer spinning with one foot or like the more traditional feel of a single treadle. Many spinners find it very rhythmic and meditative.

• Larger 55 cm wheel
  The slightly larger wheel diameter gives you extra flexibility with ratios and makes it easy to maintain smooth, consistent spinning.

• Great for reenactments & demos
  The Interlude’s period-friendly appearance and traditional setup make it ideal for historical events, living history, craft fairs and demonstrations.

• Ready to spin out of the box
  It comes with three bobbins, an inbuilt lazy kate and a maintenance kit, so you’re set up for spinning and plying from day one.

Ratios & Spinning Range

The Interlude has a lovely spread of ratios for a wide variety of yarns:

• Ratios included: 7:1, 13.5:1 and 15.5:1

This range lets you comfortably spin:

• Medium and lighter weight yarns

• Sock and 4-ply

• Finer yarns and laceweight at the higher ratios

It’s a great wheel if you enjoy spinning yarns for garments, shawls, accessories and finer projects.

Smooth Running & Build Quality

• Drive: Single drive

• Tension: Scotch tension style control (via the on-board kate and standard setup)

• Bearings:

  • Plastic bearings on bobbins

  • Brass bearings on the wheel

This combination gives you a smooth, quiet spinning experience with that classic, slightly “alive” feel of leather and brass in the moving parts.
