FTW-1052 Original Black Singer Featherweight 221 - Hand Crank Model
This is a classic Singer Featherweight 221 sewing machine in the original black that has been thoughtfully modified for off-grid sewing. It is no longer electrical and has been adapted to a smooth hand-crank operation. The bobbin winder has been disengaged, so bobbins must be wound on a separate winder. This special Featherweight comes with 20 prewound bobbins — ten in Sandy and ten in Pearl Gray — plus two spools of matching thread. Also included is a rechargeable cordless LED light that provides over 14 hours of illumination per charge.
The finish on this machine is super shiny with very few pin scratches and a couple of small smudgy marks. Overall the finish is beautiful. The gold filigree decals are intact and in excellent condition. The lid on the case for this machine has been expertly covered with sewing themed fabric. (See photo below.) This unusual Featherweight gives you the freedom to sew while you’re camping, at the park or during a power outage. You can create anytime, anywhere!
Our machines come with a carrying case, 5 bobbins, a cleaning brush, a set of screwdrivers and a copy of the instruction booklet. Everything you need to start sewing!
