The answer is D: Turn yarn into cloth.

During the industrial revolution, a number of new inventions in the textile industry greatly impacted this industry. However, it was the invention of the Spinning Jenny that is credited a lot. It helped move the textile industry from homes to factories and made wool spinning easier and faster. This invention, however, impacted the labor workforce. It reduced the amount of work needed to produce yarn. One worker was able to work 8 or more spools at once and rose to 120 due to technological advancements.
