It could spin many spindles at the same time.

 The Spinning Jenny move to the textile industry from homes to factories and created jobs for many unskilled workers although at the same time it caused many people so lose their jobs and income to support their families, The workers who lost their jobs rebelled against the invention, and in fact some of broke into James Hargreaves home and destroyed the Spinning Jenny’s to stop the inventions in aim of hoping they could go back to cottage industries..

It has had some of the largest impacts on the world, leading  to breakthrough after breakthrough. The textile industry came about when the cottage industry moved to factories as increased demand due to a growing population.

The flying shuttle  was a key development in the industrialisation and weaving in the early industrial revolution, some future inventions were based on the flying shuttle.  It allowed the weaver to weave much wider fabrics and lead to the idea of automatic machine looms. It made more time as it did two people‘s work better and quicker.

The source is a picture of a woman who, seems to be spinning material on the spinning Jenny in their home. They’re also accompanied by an old lady and a small girl perhaps her family. It gives a clear image of what life was like after the invention of the spinning Jenny. The purpose of the photo is to give insight on how people‘s lives changed after the the invention. The source is important because it’s a part of history and tells us how different life was.  We can learn from the source on how it was used and how it impacted the people.

At this time factories were very common there were no cottage industries left.  This source was created to show insight on how factories were run during that time. The photo gives the clear idea on how women were the ones working on the power looms, weaving in textile factories.  The source also seems to have a man holding a fabric looking down on the women who was working the machine, this is saying that the man was in charge and possibly the owner of the factory.  The purpose of this source is to show how factories were worked back in industrial revolution.  The source is important because it can help us compare then from now, so we don’t make the same mistakes or redo the past, it also tells us that men were incharge back then and we can learn about how and why factories were that way.

This source was taken at the end of the industrial revolution, and children were still working in factories. The source was created for anyone to see it, possibly a newspaper the government etc, anyone looking to see how factories were run. The picture is showing how busy and streamlined factories were. It was one person doing the same thing over and over again. There is  Lines and lines of machines with workers of any age stuck in between them working all day like “robots”. The purpose of the source is the recording of history since being a photo it is very realistic, as it was first hand and not someone’s impression or illustration of what was going on. The source shows us how busy factories were run, many workers and machines were crammed together to make the most production leading to the most money for the owner, as workers paid next to nothing.
