How The Early Spinning Jenny Worked, c1934
How The Early Spinning Jenny Worked, c1934. Illustration showing the machine for spinning cotton, invented in 1764 by James Hargreaves. The accompanying text explains the mechanism. The multi-spindle frame reduced the amount of work needed to produce cloth (previously spun by hand), with a worker able to work eight or more spools at once. This increase in output was one of the key developments in the industrialisation of weaving during the early Industrial Revolution and led to the factory system of production. From The Romance of the Nation, Volume Two, edited by Charles Ray. [The Amalgamated Press, Ltd. London, c1934]
