Answer:

James Hargreaves

Step-by-step explanation:

James Hargreaves' 'Spinning Jenny', the patent for which is shown here, would revolutionise the process of cotton spinning. The machine used eight spindles onto which the thread was spun, so by turning a single wheel, the operator could now spin eight threads at once.
