The Spinning Jenny was invented in 1765.
The invention of the spinning jenny, a multi-spindle spinning frame, in 1765 was a significant advancement for the textile sector during the Industrial Revolution. It was used for cotton or wool spinning. It lessened the amount of labour required to make cloth. This machine would create about 120 spools, compared to 8 workers at a time.
