Spinning Jenny - 1764

http://www.fromoldbooks.org/Antisell-HandbookOfTheUsefulArts/pages/109-Spinning-Jenny/
The Spinning Jenny was made in 1764 by James Hargreaves. This machine made more than one ball of yarn or thread at a time. It made it easier and faster to make cloth. This improved clothing and time of making each item, which means more work could be done and more money could be made.
