My daughter was gifted a spinning wheel and we've been trying to find someone local-ish to teach her how to use it. Do you know anyone in Central Kentucky who knows how to spin and would be willing to teach?

I'm sorry to say that I don't know anyone there. Can you show me what kind of wheel she's got?
The one she was given was a homemade one made with PVC pipes. The woman it belonged to had to go to a long term care facility and could no longer use it. I'm not sure how to load a picture into the comments on here (I'm new).
If you find out what kind of flyer she got, if it's scotch or irish tension and if it's one pedal or two on it I would say it's possible to find out what you got. I'll search for some pictures and see if I can find any links so that you can look and compare. I've seen wheels made with pvc on pinterest and I can at least try and help you so she might be able to use it 😊
Try this link to see if you have anything that looks similar.

Hers is similar to this one. Maybe I'll make a post about it and post a picture. I'll tag you. :)
