Thank you for that. Not surprised that it all meant so little to me. Kever, seve, ruder  are not to be found in my usual reference sources.  Wollen & lenon  seem to be fabrics but their connection with a wheel beats my imagination.

Kever, seve, ruder  are not to be found in my usual reference sources.  Wollen & lenon  seem to be fabrics but their connection with a wheel beats my imagination.

Spinning wheels for wool and linen, perhaps?

kever = cover (cloth)
seve = sieve
ruder = rudder?

Thanks Bookbox.  Am investigating spinning separately, but please don't apologise for closing for the day. I am very grateful for everything you have done.
