- The only spinner that I was told of around this locality was Mrs O'Toole my great grandmother. She lived in Griffinstown about five miles from Dunlavin, and she died about twenty-five years ago when she was ninety years of age. She was buried in Baltinglass Cemetry.
Mrs O'Toole made her own spinning wheel out of wood. She had it fixed on a stand with four legs, something like a stool. Mrs. O'Toole spent much of her time spinning, and she made a large quantity of wool out of which she would knit socks and stockings. When she wanted to make coloured wool she mixed different coloured fleeces together; To make grey wool she mixed a black fleece and a few white fleeces together, and the wool would turn out grey.
