Aren’t they cute together?

There they are.. excuse the dirty floor and all the dust on the HH - I didn’t realize either was so bad until I took the picture! Guess I should sweep the corners more often :lol:

(and yes I know I have the knob at the top of the Rose on backwards.. I’ll fix it later ;) )

It’s here!!

My Rose finally arrived!! I haven’t had much chance to play with it much yet, but I did get it put together, and oh my, it’s so QUIET!! Really the only thing you can hear when spinning is the sound of the bobbin against the scotch tension brake.

It’s going to take a little while to get used to it I think, as the spring clip in the flyer definately seems to have a bit of a learning curve (or rather, I seem to have a problem with forgetting to MOVE the thing, and estimating where to move it!) but other than that, it’s wonderful! Treadling is so smooth compared to my Ashford.. it’s amazing! :P
