Note: Machines equipped with many spindles designed to simultaneously draw out, twist, and wind (or spin) multiple spindles of fibers to form yarn. A modification of the spinning jenny, these machines were equipped with spindles mounted on an enlarged moving portion of the machine, rather than on a stationary frame. The modern spinning machine is often considered to be a power-driven instantiation of these manually-operated devices. The first reference to this device is thought to be in approximately 1802, when James Scholfield installed the spinning machine in his North Andover textile mill.
