| Quilley Winder Children generally acted as winders otherwise it was women’s work. Newly spun yarn was wound onto reels or made into skeins. A niddy noddy was used to transfer yarn from hanks to bobbins. These hanks of yarn could be weighed and then wound onto bobbins, locally called quills. The Museum has a mechanical bobbin winder which speeds up a tedious job. |
